Government policy on the Environment will always be in a state of change. I believe a continuing flux of measures will be introduced and applied all the time. The change to a lower carbon economy will take many years. Home owners who have missed the last scheme will have access to the next scheme. No need to become disheartened or confused, just research the latest and apply what suits best.
The announced rise in electricity prices is a likely harbinger of future rises.The switch from a cash rebates to the sale of REC Renewable Energy Certificates has been unsuccessful. But now due to major reworking of the schemes. The newest scheme will be much better. The government has moved to secure the valuation of REC at a $40 per Kilowatt hour, and this is seen as a good price. Previously, after the failure of the World Copenhagen climate summit REC had fallen to low levels. Apparently the Renewable Energy Target scheme is to aim for 20% of energy from renewable sources by 2020. This will be the equivalent of $6,200 for a home based 1.5Kw solar panel power system: and $1,200 for a standard home solar hot water system.
