Northern Territorians living in apartments and units will continue to benefit from shared rooftop solar following the NT Government’s confirmation it will extend the Solar for Multi Dwellings Grant Scheme for another 18 months to 31 December 2027.
The $2.35 million grant scheme, launched in October 2024 in partnership with the Australian Government, has so far committed more than $450,000 in grants to eligible Territory households.
The Government says the scheme has helped over 200 Territory households to save an average of more than $1Â ,500 a year on their energy bills.
The initiative is funded through the Australian Government’s Community Solar Banks program and managed by the Northern Territory Government.
The scheme supports apartment complexes across the Northern Territory to install shared rooftop solar systems by providing grants of $7,500 per unit, up to a total of 50% of the costs of installation, to eligible body corporates and other multi-dwelling management entities.
