How can you use Localvolts?
Localvolts is for residential consumer and businesses of all sizes. Here a few examples of how you can use Localvolts to improve your situation.
Jarmila Uhlirova
Lives with her family in a house with a solar PV and battery in Berowra Heights NSW. Her preference is to buy the cheapest energy, and sell excess energy to everyone.
Localovolts makes it easy for Jarmila to control her buy and sell prices.
If no-one in the market is willing to pay the prices that she sets for her exported energy, then her Localvolts account will automatically sell to the wholesale market at the current price.
Jitendra Tomar
Lives in a unit in Manly NSW. He prefers to buy energy from his friends.
Localvolts allows Jitendra to find his friends in the marketplace. He then configures his system to buy from them whenever they have energy available.
If none of his friends are generating energy, Jitendra’s has configured his Localvolts account to buy from the closest generator. He has set a maximum price limit to avoid paying too much.
Rachel Fischer
Rachel lives in a house with solar PV in Sydney, and her son, Tom, lives in an apartment in Wollongong. Rachel gives her son free electricity when her solar panels generate excess power.
Localvolts lets Rachel set a special price of zero dollars, that can only be purchased by Tom. Tom’s Localvolts account automatically “purchases” the zero dollar energy whenever it is available.
