Benefits of the Origin Loop VPP Partnership Program
Let’s take a closer look at the benefits for installers and their customers.
Expanding business opportunities
Joining the Origin Loop VPP Partnership Program allows installers to offer customers an innovative solution that combines solar, battery storage, and VPP technology. As more homeowners and businesses look for ways to manage their energy use and costs, VPPs provide a seamless way to maximise savings and contribute to a more stable grid. Installers can attract new clients by offering a product that enhances solar systems, enabling customers to participate in a Virtual Power Plant.
Increase customer value with Virtual Power Plants
By integrating into Origin Loop, customers who sign up to an Origin electricity plan can access benefits that go beyond traditional solar and battery installations. The ability to sell stored energy back to the grid and receive credits on their bills is a fantastic selling point. Installers who offer this program provide their customers with increased control over their energy use, allowing them to actively contribute to grid stability and earn money by doing so.
Tap into the growing demand for VPPs
The demand for renewable energy continues to be strong across Australia. More homeowners are seeking solar systems with battery storage, and VPPs are a natural extension of this trend. As an installer, being part of the Origin Loop VPP Partnership Program puts you in a prime position to meet this growing demand. With this program, installers can offer a unique solution that provides both immediate and long-term financial benefits for customers.
Technical support and partnership perks
One of the key benefits of joining the Origin Loop VPP Partnership Program is the ongoing support installers receive. Origin offers a range of resources to help installers integrate VPP technology into their offerings. From technical training to marketing support, the partnership ensures installers have everything they need to successfully promote and install VPP-enabled solar systems.
Additionally, leveraging Origin’s strong national brand recognition and credibility enhances an installer’s reputation and visibility. Homeowners and businesses alike are more likely to trust an installer who has a commercial relationship with a major player in the Australian energy market.
Sustainability and the energy transition
For installers who are passionate about contributing to Australia’s clean energy future, the Origin Loop VPP Partnership Program provides a clear path to support this goal. By installing VPP-enabled systems, installers can help more households reduce their reliance on fossil fuels and promote cleaner, greener energy solutions.
