Documents needed to apply for solar loans

Applying for a solar loan can make it easier to install a new solar system, battery or complete solar and battery package without paying the full cost upfront.

When applying for a solar loan for your solar or battery system, you may be asked to provide documents that help the loan provider verify your identity, income and financial circumstances.

Common documents may include:

  • Proof of identity
  • Proof of income
  • Bank statements

The exact requirements will depend on the solar loan provider, loan product and your individual circumstances.

Proof of identity

Solar loan providers will generally need to confirm your identity before approving an application.

You may be asked to provide identification such as:

  • A valid Australian driver licence
  • An Australian or international passport
  • Another form of identification accepted by the loan provider

The documents required can vary between providers, so you may need to provide more than one form of identification in some circumstances.

Proof of income

You may also be required to provide evidence of your income so the solar loan provider can assess your ability to meet repayments.

Employees may be asked to provide recent payslips.

If you receive income from other sources or are self-employed, the loan provider may request different supporting documents depending on your circumstances.

Bank statements

Recent bank statements may also be requested as part of the solar loan application.

These can help the loan provider verify your income, regular expenses and any existing financial commitments.

The period of statements required will depend on the lender and the type of solar loan you are applying for.

In many cases, the solar loan application can be completed online. The loan provider will advise you during the application process if additional supporting documents are required.
