NSW Battery Rebate (PDRS, PRCs)

General information about the PDRS

GSES has published a good guide that is easier to read that the government document.

Create the rebate items in your inventory

1. go to More Settings > Inventory
2. click Add Custom Item
3. under Category, select Subsidy
4. under name, enter NSW Battery Rebate BESS 1 (Ausgrid).
5. click save
6. select Apply Sales Tax
7. upload this Battery Fact Sheet in the brochure section
8. add a pricing option - use a formula price if you would like the number of PRCs to be calculated automatically. If the PRC price is $2, then use this formula:floor ((usable-battery-kwh * 0.0853 * 1 * 1.04 * 10 * 6 * 15 )) * 2
9. follow the same process to create custom inventory items for all 4 rebate variations:
   1. BESS 1 (Ausgrid) floor ((usable-battery-kwh * 0.0853 * 1 * 1.04 * 10 * 6 * 15 )) * 2
   2. BESS 1 (Essential Energy and Endeavour) floor ((usable-battery-kwh * 0.0853 * 1 * 1.05 * 10 * 6 * 15 )) * 2
   3. BESS 2 VPP (Ausgrid) floor ((usable-battery-kwh * 1.04 * 11.646)) * 2
   4. BESS 2 VPP (Essential Energy and Endeavour) floor ((usable-battery-kwh * 1.05 * 11.646)) * 2

Use the following formulas to calculate the rebate price:

BESS 1 Ausgrid	floor ((usable-battery-kwh * 0.0853 * 1 * 1.04 * 10 * 6 * 15 )) * 2
BESS 1 Endeavour & EE	floor ((usable-battery-kwh * 0.0853 * 1 * 1.05 * 10 * 6 * 15 )) * 2
BESS 2 Ausgrid	floor ((usable-battery-kwh * 1.04 * 11.646)) * 2
BESS 2 Endeavour & EE	floor ((usable-battery-kwh * 1.05 * 11.646)) * 2

• The part in brackets is the number of PRCs, rounded down to the nearest whole number
• The last number (2) in the formulas above is the certificate price ex GST. $2 is just an example price. 

Alternative (not recommended - see the note on the link below) - you can use the Category “Discount” or any other category like the “Administrative” item category in the inventory which applies the rebate to the quote before the Total GST is calculated. So, the “total GST” line on the quote is affected by the subsidy amount. The rebate appears as a line item in the quote table with a negative price. See more here
