Text description of Dynamic Exports - enabling more solar for South Australians
One in three South Australian homes currently have solar.
Our goal is to safely manage solar exports for all South Australians now and into the future.
But it's a challenging goal. Too much solar energy exported to the grid on mild, sunny days can lead to:––
- unstable electricity supply
- local voltage issues
- potential for outages.
The solution is Dynamic Exports – solar exports automatically adjust to match the available capacity on the network.
New and upgrading customers connecting in overloaded areas can choose between:
- a Dynamic Export Capable (Connection) with export limits up to 10.00 kW (up to double the previous export limit); or
- a Fixed Export (Connection) with export limits up to 1.50 kW (less than 1/3 the previous static limit) - the current static export limit is 5 kW.
Dynamic Export capability enables:
- greater exports into the network
- variable exports up to 10 kW per phase
- safer and more reliable electricity supply
- allows more people to benefit from solar
- world-leading technology
- more renewable energy in South Australia.
