Victorians are being warned to reject scammers who are cold-calling homes to try and grab a slice of the state government's $1.3 billion solar power subsidy scheme.
Solar Victoria, which will oversee the program, said it's concerned about some contractors who are promising to help install rooftop panels, hot water systems and battery storage units following the government's election announcement.
"We have received alerts that scammers have been targeting Victorian households," Solar Victoria warns on its website.
"Be alert to callers claiming to be from the Victorian government or Solar Victoria requesting bank account details.
"We will never ask you to provide personal details such as banking information over the phone."
Last month the government announced its $1.34 billion Solar Homes program which also includes half-price solar panels for 650,000 households and $1000 off the cost of solar hot water systems with rebates for 60,000 homes.
Most of the cash is contingent on Labor's re-election at the November 24 state election, but rebates are already available for some households.
Premier Daniel Andrews said he was confident public watchdogs could keep an eye on the program.
"If you're being contacted by somebody, then that is not from the Victorian government, but I'm confident Consumer Affairs can handle this," he told reporters on Tuesday.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
