Jim Chalmers says Labor will unveil its plan to support the uptake of home battery storage "in coming days."
I am very keen for batteries. We have 20'ish kw of solar and so much is wasted because of export limits. If I could pump all that waste in to a battery to use over the peak period of an afternoon/evening we'd greatly reduce our bills.
Grab a new V2H/V2G charger as they start to come out and add it to an ecar.

The batteries on ecars are massive in conparison to home battieries.
Got an EV too - 85kw'ish of battery ready to roll.
Would love to soak it up over peak period, then recharge it overnight at off peak rates. Doing that alone would be a big saving.
I wonder if this will also include extra subsidies for electric vehicles which support bidirectional charging. Could really help push for an increase in electric vehicle uptake if you can also use it as a battery overnight.
