Introducing the Battery Rewards Plan

[Basil_AGL]

We’re excited to launch our new Battery Rewards Plan— an energy plan designed for customers with home batteries in NSW, QLD and SA who want to make the most of their stored energy.  

By choosing to export energy back to the grid during peak times, eligible customers can earn up to $600 in Digital Visa Gift Cards.^ It’s our way of rewarding smart energy choices that support a more sustainable grid. 

Unlock more value from your battery: https://www.agl.com.au/residential/energy/compare-plans/energy-offer?webid=BRPLAN 

^Prepaid Digital Visa gift cards are allocated quarterly and value varies depending on kWh exported in certain peak times.  Earn a $10 gift card if you export between 1kWh and 50kWh and for every additional 50kWh an extra $10 will be added to the card value – up to a maximum of $400 each quarter.   

T&Cs available at agl.com.au/compare-plans. Basic Plan Information Documents available at agl.com.au/bpid. Prepaid Visa T&Cs available at agl.com.au/bpvisaterms

Hi Basil, now that there is plenty of Sigenergy battery units being installed, do you think the customers with the same who are in the Battery Rewards plan will also be able to add the VPP plan any time soon?

Hey @rejul333, 

We are in the process of expanding our VPP capability and will be announcing new eligibility across the coming months as this expands.

HI BASIL

Can a $400 electricity credit be used for the supply charge?

Thanks

@prayas My understanding is the current VPP plans would only get 250 Kw during VPP events throughout the YEAR - not a quarter 

[Gihan]

Hi AGL team,

It’s in 40 Kw blocks isn’t is meaning minimum of 25c ??

[Gihan]

@prayas I get a message that I would get the sign up credit in January meaning 3 months from joining makes me assume that the quarter is the billing quarter from the day you join. 

[prayas]

@Gihan ...  Nah ... they are two different things ... "battery rewards" has its own credit of 25c (for all exports between 5pm to 9pm  ... these credits accrue in addition to VPP credits .... battery rewards are paid in gift cards each quarter

"VPP" is a seperate ... YES it is capped (as you have said) to 250kWh per year  ... those credits are paid at $1 /kWh each quarter, adjusted against your bill

[prayas]

@Gihan I am waiting for AGL to confirm .. regardless, this will be quarterly and will align with 90 days from your sign-up date (or the next quarterly bill) ...

Hi @Basil_AGL

Still waiting for your response regarding the $400 electricity credit.

Can this credit be used toward the supply charge?
