What?
• Create the world’s largest Virtual Power Plant (VPP) of 5MW in South Australia
• Incorporate 1,000 controllable batteries to SA homes and/or small businesses who have solar
Why?
• Facilitate further integration of intermittent renewable generation
• Demonstrate improved network stability
• Increased solar self-consumption and reduce energy bills
• Catalyst for development of the Australian VPP market
How?
This activity received funding from ARENA as part of ARENA’s Advancing Renewables program
| 10
• 1,000 batteries in 3 Phases
• The sale and deployment of battery storage solutions to SA homes and/or small businesses at a price that provides customers an acceptable return
• The demonstration of distribution and transmission network services
• Quantification of broader community benefits such as grid resilience, energy security, and enablement of higher renewables penetration
• Phased battery deployment:
