This chat with Mike Kilcullen from Plico Energy goes into the program that they are rolling out that aims to build a network of property based solar/battery systems across WA in order to form a Virtual Power Plant (VPP) that will support the grid in times of peak load and also assist in frequency/load rectification.
For $37.50/week you can have a solar/battery system installed at your property which will not only save you money - in some cases resulting in a net power bill of $0 for the year - but also provide you with a stand alone power source (batteries) which will keep you powered up during an outage!
