4 FAQs about Canberra metro station uses solar energy storage cabinets for two-way charging

How does the electricity grid work in Australia?

The electricity grid was originally designed for us to receive energy to our home and businesses, but now we also export energy from rooftop solar back to the grid. The number of homes and businesses in Australia with rooftop solar systems, batteries and electric vehicles is now significant.

Does Australia need a solar grid?

The number of homes and businesses in Australia with rooftop solar systems, batteries and electric vehicles is now significant. This has resulted in a strain on Australia’s electricity grid that was not designed to send electricity two ways. This means the way we manage exporting excess solar energy back to the grid needs to change.

Does Australia have a two-way energy system?

Insights into Australia’s growing two-way energy system is published in accordance with 6.27A(a) of the National Electricity Rules (NER). It analyses the performance of electricity distribution network service providers (DNSPs) in providing services for embedded generators, such as residential solar and batteries, to export into their networks.

How do we manage exporting solar energy back to the grid?

This means the way we manage exporting excess solar energy back to the grid needs to change. In 2021, the Australian Energy Market Commission (AEMC) identified we need to support the integration of rooftop solar more efficiently into the electricity grid. One solution is the introduction of two-way charging.
