Initial places have been filled but you can reserve your spot for when we expand the PowerSaversTM Smart Battery plan or offer a similar program in the future.
When you become a power saver on our Smart Battery plan, we reward you for allowing Endeavour Energy to use the stored energy in your battery energy storage system (BESS) to help reduce the electricity delivered from the network during times of peak demand (typically very hot or cold days). This could also lead to savings for customers on certain tariffs, such as time-of-use. This plan ends on 31 March 2024. Watch this video to learn about the Smart Battery plan.
Why should you join?
Customers who join the Smart Battery plan will receive $200 in gift cards for participating (a $40 Sign Up Bonus and $160 by the plan end date of 31 March 2024).
How does it work?
Endeavour Energy will control the charge and discharge of your BESS on what we call ‘Event Days’ only. During the peak demand times (usually between 11am and 8pm) for up to 4 hours, Endeavour Energy will instruct your BESS controller to discharge and supply energy to support your home’s energy needs on Event days.
We will notify you of Event Days via an email and/or SMS before your BESS is charged or discharged. Endeavour Energy will select up to 20 of these Event Days in total from when your participation in the plan is confirmed until the plan ends on 31 March 2024. The days chosen will be based on when we expect a series of hot or cold days but will exclude weekends and public holidays.
