The Battery STC (Small-scale Technology Certificate) is part of the Federal Government’s expansion of the Renewable Energy Target. From 1 July 2025, eligible battery storage systems — either installed alongside new solar PV systems or as upgrades to existing systems — will be eligible to generate STCs, just like solar panels do today.
⚡️ What’s Available Now in Bridge Select
Job creation for Battery Upgrade (only) and Solar PV + Battery (combo)
Battery STC enablement for eligible installations, including automatic STC calculation for rebates
Evidence capture to support compliance for battery installations (this will be refined as we know more about compliance requirements from the CER)
⚡️ What’s Coming Soon in Bridge Select
Mandatory declarations
Battery STC job listing and tracking
Battery STC pricing configuration
Additional documentary evidence requirements for key compliance stages
⚡️How It Works
Log in to your portal, open the sidebar menu, navigate to Jobs, click the Create button, and select Battery Upgrade OR Solar PV.
In the Customer Details tab, enter the owner and installation details, then click Save & Next.
You will be directed to the System Details tab. Under Connection and Battery Details, fill in the required fields including battery manufacturer and model, then click Add to register the battery.
After adding the battery, select the BSTC option to enable Battery STC eligibility. Once enabled, the system will automatically calculate the number of STCs that can be claimed.
Once all required fields are completed and STCs have been calculated, go to the Documents and Photos tab to upload all mandatory documents and installation photos.
For Solar PV + Battery jobs, STCs will continue to work alongside BSTCs as usual.
For NSW jobs, PRCs will continue to work alongside BSTCs as usual.
