This is a fantastic initiative. Hopefully all parties subscribe to this.

It’s win win for all involved. Only power companies would be against this.

      It’ll have an income threshold, and renters aren’t mentioned at all.

          I don’t think it’s too unreasonable:

          Eligibility criteria for the solar rebate will be households where the:

          • Combined household income of less than $250,000
          • Property valued at less than 1.5 times the national median house price (currently $1.15m) or 1.5 times Auckland and Queenstown median house price (approximately $1.49m and $1.9m, respectively).
          • Solar system is a minimum of 2Kw

          The rebate will be available for rental properties.
