Summary
When a single residential address contains multiple electricity meters with separate National Metering Identifiers (NMIs), solar rebate eligibility varies across government levels. State schemes typically limit duplicate subsidies to a single property, whereas federal renewable energy certificates are structured around individual NMIs. Landlords planning solar expansion across multi-meter properties must confirm eligibility requirements with certified solar installers and relevant authorities before installation.
Key Points
Why it matters: Properties configured with multiple electricity meters and National Metering Identifiers (NMIs) under a single title require careful compliance checks to maximize government energy incentives.
