Dynamic Connection Agreements Milestone Achieved
Last week we reached a significant milestone by issuing the first five Dynamic Connection Agreements (DCA) to residents with eligible solar systems. The DCA allows Essential Energy to manage inverter settings to achieve higher export limits when the network can accommodate it which in turn enables residents to increase solar export limits providing a better return on their solar investment.
As a reminder, eligibility primarily depends on the inverter compatibility with the Common Smart Inverter Protocol (CSIP) as defined by the Clean Energy Council and other requirements including an internet connection to the inverter.
Out of the 286 premises at Tea Gardens, 18 premises were eligible, with five premises signing up to the first phase of the rollout.
