How much is the rebate for solar panels in Timor, VIC
The Australian Federal Government has incentives for Timor homeowners to install solar. They give "STCs" (small-scale technology certificates) to people who add a solar power system to their home.
The government divides the country into "Zones" depending on the rated solar potential. You get more support or less depending on your zone. Timor is in Climate Zone 3 which has a rating of 1.382.
