Solar Batteries Queanbeyan

Boost your energy efficiency, increase your savings, and minimise your reliance on the local grid.

Solar panel systems make it possible for people in Queanbeyan to use clean, green energy to power their homes and businesses. The energy from the sun that your panels collect can be used right away, sent back to the grid or saved for later. If you want to do the third option, you'll need solar batteries that can keep up with your energy needs.

A solar battery lets you get the most power out of your solar panels by storing the energy from the sun for later use. Adding this complementary add-on to your system has many benefits, including:

Stores solar energy and lets you use it on demand
Boosts the efficiency of your rooftop solar panels
Improves your environmental sustainability
Opens up a new source of income by selling extra energy back to the grid
Increases your credibility with customers who care about the environment (for businesses)

JOIN A VPP TO UNLOCK MAXIMUM SAVINGS WITH NSW SOLAR BATTERY INCENTIVES

Solar power helps reduce monthly electricity costs, but joining a Virtual Power Plant (VPP) takes your savings even further. With the NSW Solar Battery Incentives, eligible households and businesses can receive an additional rebate of $250 to $400 for connecting their solar battery to a VPP, claimable twice with a minimum three-year gap.

What is a VPP?

A VPP, or Virtual Power Plant, is a cloud-based network of residential solar power systems controlled by a centralised smart system. It enables participants to:

Avoid peak demand tariffs, reducing electricity bills.
Earn extra revenue by selling stored solar energy back to the grid during periods of high demand.
Support grid stability and reliability, especially during peak usage times.

This program not only enhances individual savings but also contributes to a more sustainable and efficient energy network across NSW.

Eligibility

Participation in a VPP depends on your solar battery type and compatibility with the program. The NSW Solar Battery Incentives provide upfront discounts on battery installation and additional rebates for VPP connections, helping residents make the most of their solar investments.
