At the moment there are numerous rebates available, but trying to understand them and then claim them is proving a difficult proposition. There is also the problem of awareness, in that a lot of people are purchasing Solar Hot Water or Heat Pump systems, and not claiming any rebates because they simply didn't know about them.
