These rebates make battery storage more affordable and accessible, allowing more households to take advantage of this sustainable energy solution.</p><p>With the help of the Battery Booster program, Queensland residents can not only save money on their electricity bills but also contribute to a greener and more sustainable future. By shifting their demand from off peak to peak times, residents can reduce their reliance on the grid and potentially even sell excess energy back to the grid when it can command the highest prices.</p><figure id="figure-ntytn6w61qlr5i1zut"><img id="ntytn6w61qlr5i1zut" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/7GT8dtLwIyCAaFCchNw4P0WDW3tjfCCJGTuiVs7ceZGC2rIh4UKHt9MUS67zFkg5.jpg" alt="Example battery customer paying 6c/kWh and feeding over a /kWh" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-2xl md:rounded-3xl lg:rounded-4xl" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="Reversing the duck curve and paying 6c/kWh and feeding over a /kWh" data-positionX="undefined" data-positionY="undefined"/><figcaption class="body-normal text-gray-500 mt-2">Reversing the duck curve and paying 6c/kWh and feeding over a /kWh</figcaption></figure><p><br data-mce-bogus="1"></p><h3>How Does the Battery Booster Program Work?</h3><p>The Battery Booster program will offers rebates of up to $3,000 to eligible Queensland residents who purchase and install battery storage.
