Victoria has expanded its virtual power plant program to include additional household battery and small business storage participants.
The new phase introduces improved dispatch signals and participation incentives during high-demand intervals.
Distribution partners said aggregated batteries can reduce local peak stress and improve network utilisation outcomes.
Program operators expect enrollment to accelerate as consumers seek greater value from behind-the-meter storage systems.
