A new ARENA-backed residential solar and storage trial aims to tap the “crucial but little-known” smarts of inverter technology to improve the stability and reliability of network electricity supply, while also cutting costs for consumers. The trial, dubbed Networks Renewed, will be led by the UTS Institute of Sustainable Futures in conjunction with NSW and Victorian utilities Essential Energy and United Energy, as well as energy management start-up Reposit Power and inverter group SMA Australia.
The support of the Institute for Sustainable Futures (ISF) trial is a critical part of ARENA’s efforts to accelerate Australia’s transition to an energy system powered by renewables that will serve the needs of Australians into the future. ARENA is providing A$1.87 million (~$1.37 million) in funding for the ISF at the University of Technology Sydney to lead the trial, dubbed ‘Networks Renewed’. Source: ARENA
