About Localvolts

Localvolts operates a peer-to-peer energy marketplace where you buy and sell electricity at real-time wholesale prices, setting your own buy and sell offers in five-minute intervals.

WHAT STANDS OUT
  • True peer-to-peer trading
  • Full control over your buy/sell offers
  • No fixed brand list — any compliant battery

Where it operates: NSW, QLD, SA, TAS and ACT.

How you earn
Model: you buy and sell at real-time wholesale prices and set your own buy/sell offers in 5-minute intervals — fully market-exposed, no fixed credit or feed-in. Returns depend entirely on market prices.
Your everyday rates — daily supply charge ($/day), usage (c/kWh) and standard feed-in — depend on your network and the specific plan. Check the operator’s official page (or Energy Made Easy) for current figures before joining.

Batteries Localvolts works with

Only what Localvolts officially publishes. "Pending" means a brand isn't on the current public list yet — not a judgement of the product. Tap a battery to see every VPP that accepts it.

Localvolts doesn't publish a fixed approved-battery list — eligibility is judged per system (often any compatible smart battery). Confirm your exact model with the operator.
