Participating in Flexible Exports

Welcome to our Flexible Exports Service

In Spring 2025, Flexible Exports will become a standard offer for solar customers, nearly doubling the amount of solar energy that can be exported to the grid.

Right now, we’re enrolling customers with eligible inverters (GoodWe, Solis and Sungrow) and expanding to include more brands soon.

Acting now to deliver long-term benefits to customers

By 2040, half of Endeavour Energy’s 1.2 million customers are forecast to have rooftop solar panels connected to the grid, with a trend for larger solar systems.

With more solar entering our network, we are acting now to ensure new and existing solar customers can export excess renewable solar to the grid for a sustainable, reliable, and resilient energy future.

You can discover how Flexible Exports works to unlock solar exports and increase customer savings while maintaining a stable, reliable grid for all customers here.

Participating in our Flexible Exports Trial

Participating in the Trial means:

  • Endeavour Energy communicates over the internet with your smart solar inverter.
  • You start exporting up to 10kW of excess solar to the grid most of the time (95%). This is double the current fixed solar export limit of 5kW.
  • We send a signal to your inverter to remotely adjust your solar exports down only when excess solar energy is impacting the reliable supply of power in your local area.
  • You can achieve savings by exporting more excess solar energy to the grid.

Please see our Flexible Exports Consumer Trial Fact Sheet here.

How much can I save on energy costs?

The exact amount you can save by exporting more excess solar energy to the grid will depend on a variety of factors, including:

  • The size of your solar system;
  • The rated power output of your inverter;
  • Your usage patterns;
  • The time of year (electricity use and solar generation varies across seasons); and
  • The feed-in tariff you receive from your electricity retailer.

Endeavour Energy estimates that if you have an eligible inverter with a rated power output of 8kW, you could save between $40 - $60 per year, and customers with a 10kW inverter could save between $100 - $200 per year.

We have analysed potential savings for participating solar customers with compatible inverters who choose Flexible Exports. The table below considers annual sunlight data, system size and retailers feed in tariffs.
