At GridFree Solar, we help you generate, store, and save on energy — all while reducing your carbon footprint and unlocking government rebates.
Welcome to GridFree Solar — your trusted partner for solar battery storage and rebate-claims in Melbourne.
Our Story
Founded with a mission to make sustainable, affordable energy accessible, GridFree Solar combines expert technical know-how with genuine customer service. We realised that while many homes in Victoria install rooftop solar panels, most of the solar energy they generate is exported to the grid or lost. By adding a battery storage system, you keep that energy for yourself — using it at night, on overcast days or during peak pricing periods. That means far lower power bills, and more control. We also navigate the complex world of rebates and government incentives for you.
Our vision
We believe in a future where every home in Melbourne truly owns its energy: producing it, storing it, using it smartly and even earning from it. At GridFree Solar, we’re making that future accessible today.
Store extra solar power during the day to use at night, less reliance on the grid.

With a larger battery, you don’t have to charge or drain it fully each day. Keeping the battery between 40% and 60% charge helps it last much longer — up to four times longer than normal.
With a typical electricity price difference of $0.40/kWh, and 20kWh daily usage, customers save around $8 per day — most recover their investment in under 2 years.
At GridFree Solar, we bring together innovation, efficiency, and sustainability — empowering Melbourne homes to take full control of their energy future. From top-tier solar panels to intelligent hybrid systems, every solution is designed for maximum savings and performance.
Safest, most thermally stable battery chemistries with lower fire risk and better heat tolerance than alternatives.
Our models are engineered for 8,000+ cycles and 15+ year design life, making them cost-effective over time.
Batteries can be stacked and expanded easily as your energy needs grow, from small residential setups to larger commercial systems. Scalability means you don’t have to overspend upfront.
Compatible with many hybrid inverters and controllers commonly used in Australian solar systems, supporting retrofit or new installations without proprietary inverter lock-in.
High depth of discharge (DoD) and efficient charge/discharge performance mean more of your generated solar energy is stored and used rather than wasted.
Integrated BMS safeguards against over-charge/discharge, over-current, and temperature extremes, protecting battery health and extending service life.

Solar battery storage is one of the fastest-growing segments of Australia’s renewable energy revolution — yet battery storage, solar backup power myths and misconceptions still
Whether you’re upgrading an existing solar setup, starting fresh, or considering going grid-free, it’s natural to have questions about rebates, eligibility, incentives, and the subsidy
As electricity costs continue to rise in Victoria and power outages become more frequent, Victorian homeowners and businesses are actively looking for reliable alternatives to
Yes, eligible Victorians can still access federal solar battery rebates through the Cheaper Home Batteries Program, offering around a 30% or more discount offers on eligible battery systems when installed by CEC approved installation providers.
From May 1, 2026, the rebate will fall again and will change to a tiered system where larger batteries will receive less rebate per kWh than small batteries.
Yes, you can stack the federal battery rebate with Victorian solar panel rebates (e.g., cheaper home batteries program) to maximize savings on a solar panel + battery system.
From May 1, 2026, the first 14kWh of usable battery storage will receive ~$243 per kWh. The next 15-28kWh will receive ~$146 per kWh, while 29-50kWh will receive only $36 per kWh.
For the Cheaper Home Batteries Program, you generally need solar panels installed alongside or before the battery to claim the rebate, as the focus is on integrated solar + battery setups.
