Investing in solar and batteries is one of the best ways to take control of your energy bills and reduce reliance on the grid. But let’s be honest – good quality systems aren’t cheap.
The good news? You don’t have to pay for everything at once.
With flexible payment options, including the NSW Government’s 0% interest, fee-free loan for eligible households, you can pay upfront or spread the cost over time using the savings from your new system. The choice is yours.
You can choose what works best for you – pay upfront, pay over time or a mix of both. Buying a system over $15,000? Cover the difference with cash or explore one of our other finance options.
An interest-free way to get solar & batteries sooner. Borrow up to $15,000 with no interest and fees, and repay over up to 10 years or sooner if you prefer.
Funded by the NSW Government and delivered through Plenti, the loan application integrated into the Solar Neighbourhoods process.
The loan is open to NSW households with a combined taxable income of up to $210,000 – a generous threshold that covers most households.
You’ll need to be the homeowner or landlord, an Australian citizen or permanent resident, and pass a standard credit check.
Our small solar package comes in at just $16 a week. Our small solar and battery package comes in at only $29 a week.
For most homes, the savings on your power bill roughly cover the loan repayments, meaning your system can start paying for itself from day one.
We’ve lined up other low-cost financing options, so you can still get solar and batteries now — and start saving today. 1KOMMA5˚ will walk you through what’s on offer, explain it all simply, and help you find the option that fits your home and your needs.

Solar Neighbourhoods saved me time and effort.
They provided information and packages for consideration that appeared well researched and carefully selected hardware, suppliers and installers.
Council vetting the provider and products gave us the confidence to finally go ahead.
We’d been considering solar and a battery for a while but researching products and installers was time consuming and it was difficult to get a handle on the best options. The $1,250 discount and knowing Council had vetted the provider and products made the decision easy. 1KOMMA5 delivered excellent service with quality products and friendly, professional installers, and the difference to our bills, and our awareness of our power use through the app was more or less instant. Solar Neighbourhoods is a great practical initiative that has genuinely benefited our household and helped us take a tangible action that helps the environment.
The installation was smooth, professional and very well communicated.
The whole Solar Neighbourhoods process has been great. The team at 1KOMMA5 gave me all the information I needed to make an informed decision. The installation was smooth, professional and very well communicated. I’m really happy with the result and confident this will have a positive environmental impact. I’d thoroughly encourage others to join the program. It’s good for you and the planet.
