We need more flexible options that let people choose how they participate from simple rewards for shifting energy use, through to more sophisticated automated models.
More than 400 Australians shared their experiences owning and using a home battery.We found that battery owners are overwhelmingly satisfied with their systems.
But our research also highlighted a major opportunity - how we can unlock more of the value that home batteries can provide to the grid.Virtual Power Plants (VPPs) can coordinate thousands of household batteries to store energy when it’s abundant and send it back when it’s needed most. But currently, many battery owners are hesitant to join them.
Rewiring Australia has the solution. It isn't asking every household to become an energy expert. We need more flexible options that let people choose how they participate from simple rewards for shifting energy use, through to more sophisticated automated models.
Electrifying our homes and cars is the recipe to cut emissions and save money for Australian homes. Let's build an abundant electric future for Australia.
“Electric technologies are scientifically proven to be cheaper and more efficient. A heat pump water heater or reverse cycle A/C uses around a quarter of the energy to heat the same water or air. Gas goons will never tell you this and say it’s about consumer choice. It’s imperative that nobody is fooled by their lies.”
Join this webinar organised by the Nature Conservation Council to hear from experts on how improving energy efficiency helps fight climate change and why a Healthy Homes Plan will support rental homes (which are 1/3 of homes in NSW) to be more affordable and liveable.
South Australian gas customers risk being left with millions of dollars in new connection costs after the Malinauskas Government quietly delayed a national rule taking effect today that would have made new gas connections pay their own way.
