Power2U Program
Solar and Lighting Incentive Project
The Power2U - Solar and LED Lighting Incentive project is about encouraging customers to adopt renewable energy and efficiency measures such as new solar power systems and LED lighting upgrades.
The two year program will operate in selected suburbs in the Sydney area and is part of Ausgrid’s efforts to develop innovative demand management solutions that allow Ausgrid to manage the network more flexibly and improve reliability for customers in our network.
How does it work?
Incentives will be available through Ausgrid’s preferred market providers who will introduce offers inclusive of Ausgrid’s rebates for new solar power and energy efficient lighting systems. Systems installed before June 2020 are eligible.
Market providers are not yet finalised, but will be announced in the coming weeks.
If your residence or business is located in one of our program suburbs, directly contact your corresponding provider to ask for a quote. The supplier will arrange to assess your solar PV or efficient lighting needs with you and explain their offer.
