You can earn over 25c per kWh in Peak Export Rewards (paid as Visa gift cards) + standard retail Feed-in Tariff (FiT) when your battery exports during peak times. Plus if you are on a time-of-use (ToU) tariff you’ll come out ahead even if you charge back from the grid overnight, thanks to cheaper overnight rates.

How it works:
Most solar batteries come with a feature that lets you automatically schedule when and how much energy you export to the grid. It’s a simple way to stay in control of your energy and your rewards.
Check with your solar battery manufacturer or installer to see how your can set up your battery for automatic exports. Or follow these guides if you have a Tesla or Sungrow battery:
Looking to purchase a battery?
Our Virtual Power Plant (VPP) offer is separate to the AGL Battery Rewards Plan.
With the Battery Rewards Plan you can use any solar battery you want and exporting is up to you. We don’t touch your battery.
If you meet the VPP eligibility requirements, you can join the VPP as well as the Battery Rewards Plan, and start earning even more rewards with your battery. If you join the VPP we may control when your battery charges or discharges.
If you’d like to chat to us about the VPP, you’ll have the option to select ‘Yes, I want to talk to someone about the VPP’ as you sign up to this plan.
Follow these steps to activate your card:
You must activate your gift card within 3 years of issue. Your Prepaid Digital Visa Card will be valid for 3 years from the date of issue. Read full terms (PDF).

¹Prepaid Digital Visa gift card T&Cs available at visa terms. Plan T&Cs available at Market Contracts. Basic Plan Information Documents and Fact Sheets containing key details of these plans are available upon request.
²A ToU (time of use) tariff means you pay different rates for electricity at different times. If you are a ToU customer, the combined value of the gift cards and feed-in tariff you receive for exporting during the 5pm-9pm peak window exceeds the price you would pay for buying electricity at your off-peak overnight rate. You can view your electricity rates above to find your off-peak rate and configure your battery accordingly.
