Starting November 1, 2024, new battery incentives under the Peak Demand Reduction Scheme allow homeowners and businesses installing new batteries or connecting existing ones to a Virtual Power Plant (VPP) to earn Peak Reduction Credits (PRCs) for substantial returns. For instance, a 28.0 kWh battery installation yields 2235 PRCs, translating to an estimated return of $4,626.45, while a 10.0 kWh battery generates 798 PRCs, earning around $1,651.86. These incentives boost financial gains and support sustainable energy usage, making it an ideal opportunity for those looking to optimize their energy solutions.
