Cheaper Home Batteries Program

The battery rebate gets smaller on 1 January.

The federal government pays part of the cost of an eligible home battery, and we take it off your quote upfront, so you never have to claim it yourself. The size of the discount is set by the date your battery is installed, and it reduces every six months.

What our customers say

5 out of 5 from 35 Google reviews
Paul will be the only electrician I use from now on. His personable nature, professionalism, quality of work and attention to detail were outstanding and I could not be happier with the result. Nothing was rushed, everything was done neatly, thoughtfully and with our best interests at heart. Stop looking for the right sparky, you've just found them!

Paul was amazing, he showed up on time and extremely professional, very happy with the work. I will definitely hire him again for our electrical needs.

Paul from Mo Bros was outstanding. One of those shock moments dealing with Trades people where he quoted promptly, said he'd be there and did what he said, and went way beyond the call of duty giving my wife a lift from melbourne when her bus was cancelled, and driving through the snow to install our zappi in freezing conditions. Amazing service, and the Zappi is up and running less than a week after sending a web query.

Batteries we install

What a battery does for your home, hour by hour

Without a battery, most of your solar leaves the house in the middle of the day for a small feed-in credit, and you buy power back at night for far more.

Daytime

Solar runs the house and fills the battery

Your panels power what is switched on. Anything left over charges the battery before it is sent to the grid.

Evening and overnight

The battery takes over when power costs most

Dinner, heating, cooling and the dishwasher run on the solar you stored earlier, instead of peak-rate grid power.

When the grid goes down

Partial or full home backup

Back up just the essentials like the fridge, lights and internet, or the whole home. We go through the options with you before we quote.

Midday Power Saver · 11am to 2pm

Fill your battery on free power

Victoria's Midday Power Saver plans give you three hours of free electricity every day from 11am to 2pm. A battery can top up in that window, even on a cloudy day, and run your home through the evening peak. You need to opt in with your retailer, and rates outside the window can be higher, so we'll help you work out whether it suits your home.

From first call to switched on

  1. 1

    Site check

    Battery installations are tightly regulated, so we inspect every site before providing a proposal. We check your switchboard, your existing solar and where the battery can safely go.

  2. 2

    Fixed quote

    We provide a fixed-price quote that includes all associated works and the battery rebate as an upfront discount.

  3. 3

    Installation

    We install your battery like it's going in our own home. Check out our portfolio.

  4. 4

    Paperwork done

    Rebate certificates, your Certificate of Electrical Safety and the network approval are all handled by us.

Why Mo Bros Electrical

A battery is an electrical job first.

How well a battery works comes down to the switchboard, the wiring and the way it is set up with your solar. That is everyday work for us, and the person who quotes your job is an electrician.

Electrician-led

Run by an A-Grade electrician who is on the tools, so your system is designed by someone who installs them every week.

Installed to the standard

Home batteries have strict rules on where and how they can be installed. Every job is done to the current battery standard and signed off with a Certificate of Electrical Safety.

Solar, battery and EV together

We install solar, batteries and EV chargers, so your system is planned to work as one, now or when you add to it later.

Local and reachable

Based in Greensborough. If something needs attention after the install, you call us, not a call centre.

Common questions

Do I need solar panels to get the rebate?

Yes. The battery has to be connected to rooftop solar, either a system you already have or one installed at the same time. We can quote both together.

Is there a Victorian battery rebate as well?

Not at the moment. Solar Victoria's interest-free battery loan closed in 2025, so the federal Cheaper Home Batteries discount is the one that applies to batteries in Victoria.

What size battery do I need?

It depends on how much power you use after dark and how much spare solar you make. We work it out from your bills and your solar system, and explain the numbers in your quote.

Will my existing solar inverter work with a battery?

Often, yes. Some batteries connect alongside your current inverter and others replace it. We check what you have at the site visit and recommend the option that suits.

Will it keep the power on in a blackout?

Yes. The batteries we install allow for full or partial home backup. We go through both options with you before we quote.

Can I add an EV charger later?

Yes. We can recommend a charger from the same brand as your battery, designed to work with it, or a standalone charger from another brand. Either way, we can set it up to charge your car from your solar and battery.

Can I charge my battery with the three hours of free power?

Yes. On a Midday Power Saver plan, electricity is free from 11am to 2pm each day, up to a daily limit, and a battery can top up from the grid in that window. You need to opt in with your retailer, and rates at other times can be higher, so we will help you check whether it suits your home.
