Making your home sustainable with solar and battery is now easier and more accessible.
Other than the Australia-wide Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme, local governmental initiatives have been put in place to support renewable energy solar power in NSW.
This includes the Smart Distributed Batteries project, an innovative virtual power plant project supported by the NSW Government.
