Does Your Home Have Room to Host a Battery?

  • 11th October, 2024

We are looking for homeowners that are interested in joining the North Queensland Virtual Power Plant (VPP). As part of the VPP you will get paid to support the grid along with all the energy savings and back up power that comes with a battery. When we join hundreds of Batteries together in our North Queensland Community through a VPP, it becomes a powerful power plant that can support the grid during critical events.

Does your home have room for a Solar System and Battery?

If your home is suitable, you could get a Solar System and Battery without having to pay for the system*. You will lock in cheap energy for your home day and night and have back up power for the cyclone season through a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)

  • You use $0 capital for a Solar System and Battery
  • You lock in low-cost energy from the Solar & Battery to use day and night
  • 100% System Performance Money Back Guarantee*
  • System maintenance, monitoring and equipment replacement
  • Flexibility to upsize in the future
  • Buy out the system at any time
  • Get paid to support the grid with the Virtual Power Plant
  • Remain with your existing Energy Provider

Do you already have Solar and want to join the VPP?

We can help you get a battery for your home and accelerate your returns on a battery. If your home is suitable there is also an option to increase the size of your solar system and add a battery with $0 capital outlay with a PPA or just add a battery to your existing solar system.

  • Save more on your energy bill
  • Accelerate your returns on a battery with a VPP
  • Get paid to support the grid
  • Option to get a battery with $0 capital upfront when expanding your solar with a PPA
  • Back up power protection for your home

Do you already have a Solar System and Battery?

Contact our team to see if your current system can join the VPP.

  • Help support our local grid
  • Accelerate your returns on your battery
  • Get paid to support the grid.

For more information on all the above you can contact us here.
