Low variable rates

Charge your battery with our low variable rates. If you're on a time-of-use (ToU) rate, you can charge your battery at night when electricity is cheaper than the rewards you receive for exporting that energy.²

You're in control

Export as much or as little as you want between 5pm-9pm. We won’t touch your battery unless you join our Virtual Power Plant.

No lock-in contract

Change your plan anytime and if you need to leave, we don’t charge an exit fee.

Ongoing plan

This energy plan is ongoing so you don’t have to worry about renewing. Your rates and rewards can go up or down with written notice to you.

Solar feed-in tariff

Get a 4c/kWh feed-in tariff (excl. GST) for your solar exports. This tariff can change from time to time with five business days' written notice to you. Maximum system capacity and eligibility criteria apply. See full conditions.

Things you should know

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.

The value of your gift card is based on the amount of energy you export during peak times over a 3-month period.

How it works:

Export: Your energy exports must occur between 5pm and 9pm.
Total: We’ll calculate the total amount of energy you’ve exported over 3 months during peak times.
Earnings: For every 1-40 kWh exported, you’ll earn $10 worth of Digital Prepaid Visa Gift Cards (to a max of $400 in each 3-month period).
Gift card: At the end of your 3-month period, we’ll let you know how much you’ve exported, along with your Prepaid Digital Visa card via email and SMS.

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.

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.

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.
