FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
When do energy prices spike?
Historically, large power price spikes happened 3–4 times a year and there is another 20 nights or so with sizable spikes. Generally, the wholesale energy market is pretty stable but when supply drops and demand stays high, prices spike FAST. That’s when the real money is made. With ageing coal infrastructure and a volatile grid, spikes are becoming more frequent and they are an opportunity to cash in if you have the right technology.
Do I need to change my power usage behaviour to get the best results?
Not at all. If you have solar, a battery and our automated energy control hardware and software you use your power as per normal. Our system will minimise your overall costs and create the opportunity to make profit from your battery.
What is hedging?
Hedging is a margin that traditional energy retailers take from you. It’s a cut of your profit. We can show battery owners how to keep the profit.
Sounds good. What’s the catch?
The short answer. Battery size. To make the most of biggest price swings in the wholesale energy market, your battery needs surplus capacity. That means enough energy to power your home and spare space to push and pull energy for trading. The bigger the battery, the bigger the profits.
