Solar Batteries Sunbury

Maximise your energy efficiency, save money and reduce reliance on the local grid.

Solar panel systems make it possible for homeowners and commercial users in Sunbury to power their premises with clean and green energy. Solar energy harvested by your panels can either be consumed immediately, fed back to the grid, or reserved for later use. If you want to do the latter, you need to get solar batteries that can meet your power consumption.

A solar battery allows you to get the maximum output from your solar panels by capturing energy from the sun and saving it for later use. There are many benefits of installing this complementary add-on with your renewable energy setup, including:

Stores solar energy and use it when you need it most
Maximises the efficiency of your rooftop solar panels
Improves your environmental sustainability
Opens up a new revenue stream by selling extra energy back to the grid
Improves credibility with your customers who are climate-conscious (for businesses)

Join a VPP to Harness the Full Potential of Your Solar Power System

Solar generation allows us to lower our monthly utility costs, but participating in a VPP lets you ramp up your energy savings even further. The system enables consumers in Sunbury to generate their own electricity, store it in solar batteries, and then sell it to energy providers during times when demand on the main grid is high.

What Is a VPP?

VPP, or a virtual power plant, enables consumers to reduce their bills by avoiding peak demand tariffs, as well as generating extra revenue by selling their electricity.

It is a cloud-based network of residential solar power systems that are operated by a centralised smart control mechanism. One of the program's main objectives is to help stabilise the grid during times of need. Eligibility to participate in a VPP depends on the type of solar battery that a consumer has.
