Got battery storage and looking to compare VPP Plans?
A Virtual Power Plant (VPP) brings together hundreds or thousands of household batteries storing excess solar energy to create the effect of a massive battery. The VPP technology enables this stored energy to be released back into the grid during periods of high demand. Very quickly, networks can access cost-effective renewable energy to meet demand. In return, energy retailers provide incentives and payments for storage owners, helping to offset the cost of their system.
You’ll find a comparison below of the few VPP plans that have a pricing on an official Energy Fact Sheet (aka BPID) that is publicly accessible.
Most retailers now make VPPs an “add-on” to any of their generally available plans and don’t publish separate VPP plans. For a summary of retailer VPPs go here – which is the best place to start.
VPP credits and feed-in tariffs are important, but to find the best deal for your homes unique energy use, you’ll want to see the cheapest combination of rates, daily charges, controlled load rates and feed-in tariffs. We make it easy to get it right when you compare with WATTever’s comprehensive electricity comparison. When you select that you have a battery in the comparison profile entry, we display VPP plans in the results so you can see how they stack up against non-VPP plans as well. You’ll see a personalised cost ranking of all publicly listed electricity plans, based on your energy use to help you make serious savings. We include all retailers, tariff types, discounts, solar feed-in tariffs, input for concessions and more. For extra tips check out our essential guide to comparing electricity properly
