VPP compatibility by battery

Which VPPs will your battery work with?

If you want to make more from your home battery, joining a Virtual Power Plant (VPP) can offer added rewards. We’ve reviewed the major energy retailer’s VPP offers and, for each battery/inverter brand, listed the VPPs that are generally compatible. This is your quick guide to which brands are best supported, and which VPPs to shortlist. You’ll want to check the specific list of battery and inverter models on the retailer’s website, as not every model may be compatible, plus models regularly change. Some retailers require households to provide a list of components, including model and serial numbers, to confirm eligibility for their VPP. For a comparison of energy retailers’ current VPP offers, go here. For each VPP, you’ll find a summary of essential information, including signup and ongoing credits, feed-in tariff and rates, annual battery use, battery reserve retained for households and more.

My battery isn’t listed. Can I join a VPP?

There are more than 60 battery brands available in Australia. The inverter may be key if your battery brand isn’t on the list. The inverter controls the battery, and some VPPs may be able to support compatible inverter brands managing a different battery brand.

Of course, solar battery households can choose generally available retailer plans. Or better still, may benefit from battery plans where the household maintains control of their storage with the potential to schedule evening exports for higher rewards.
