Home Battery Scheme

In reply to the Hon. R.P. WORTLEY (3 May 2018).

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer): I have been advised:

The government has met these 30-day election commitments.

I can confirm that the Minister for Energy and Mining has given instructions to his agency for the establishment of the $100 million 'household storage subsidy scheme'.

The Minister for Energy and Mining has also issued instructions to his agency for the $10 million customer demand response trials, $10 million demand aggregation trials and the $10 million trial of technologies to improve grid integration.

The minister's instructions for the $50 million grid-scale storage fund, which is also one of our government's 30-day election commitments, has also been provided to his agency.
