What is a Solar Home Loan?
Want to help the planet, and yourself? Solar panels already reduce your energy bills. Now, they can also cut your home loan interest rate and repayments too. Apply for our Solar Home Loan to enjoy a lower interest rate for the first 5 years when you already have solar or will install solar within 90 days of settlement, based on a quote.
Got solar panels? Now you can save on even more than just cheap energy bills. Apply for the Solar Home Loan and get a discount on your home loan when you need it most, now.
Want solar panels? Eliminate the hurdle of paying upfront. Add the purchase cost to your mortgage, then cut your energy bill immediately as you pay the purchase off over time.
Use our calculator to check if your solar panels qualify you for the Solar Home Loan.

To qualify, simply provide a copy of your solar installation invoice or your quote for your solar installation, with solar to be installed within 90 days of the settlement of your loan.
The rates are discounted on your variable rate loan for 5 years from settlement date. You can choose from Principal & Interest or up to 5 years of interest-only repayments.
Yes, as long as you have a quote to install the solar panels, and you proceed with the installation within 90 days of settlement. We will require evidence of your new solar system size once installed to ensure you remain eligible for the solar home loan discount.
Start by understanding how much power you need, and when. Do you just need panels for day time supply, or will you also need a battery for power at night too? When choosing your solar system, it pays to do research. It also helps to get multiple quotes for comparison and to read product reviews before making your decision.
The size of system you need depends largely on your daily power needs, property type, roof space, bedroom number and whether you have a pool. The more you have, the larger the solar system you need to generate sufficient power. Find a quality solar retailer and installer to help you consider all the available technology.
Many factors affect how much your household will save on power bills, including your regular energy consumption and the size of your solar system, your feed-in tariff, usage patterns and how much sunshine you get based on where you live. The cost of your solar system will also affect the period it will take for your system to pay for itself.
