RESILIENCE + PRICE OPTIMISATION IN ONE SYSTEM
Take control of your power - day and night.
Upgrade your membership with a PowerHub home battery - your personal energy buffer.
​
Our all-in-one EcoWave battery stores electricity when it’s cheaper and releases it when prices spike or the grid goes down. That means greater energy security, lower exposure to spot price volatility, and uninterrupted comfort at home.
​
This is where PowerHub shifts from retailer... to energy orchestrator.

-
Store off-peak energy, use at peak times

Reduce reliance on the national grid

-
Fast response during outages (~milliseconds)
-
Long lifecycle (8,000+ charge cycles)
Your home becomes an energy asset - not just a consumer.
Add-On: Ground-Mounted Solar
GENERATE, STORE, AND USE YOUR OWN ENERGY
Complete the system. Generate your own power.
Take the final step toward energy independence with ground-mounted solar, designed to integrate seamlessly with your PowerHub battery and membership.
​
If your property allows - garden space, rural land, or fencing contours - solar enables you to produce, store, and consume your own electricity, dramatically reducing your exposure to wholesale price volatility.
​
This is where cost control becomes true energy autonomy.
​
Key Benefits:
-
Generate your own renewable energy
-
Increase self-consumption and self-storage
-
Reduce exposure to wholesale price volatility
-
Lower long-term electricity costs
-
Optimised through PowerHub’s energy platform
-
Easy to clean with less maintenance expenses
​
What it costs
$5,500 + GST one-off. 12 panels at 600 W each (7.2 kW), pre-framed and pre-wired, connecting straight into your Fever-1 battery.
System Outcome:
-
Solar generates → Battery stores → Home consumes
-
Grid becomes backup, not dependency
​​
From energy user... to energy producer.
PowerHub Energy Stack
Start with wholesale power. Add the hedge when you’re ready.
1. Membership → Unlock the half-hourly wholesale price, plus our flat two-cent service fee
2. +Battery → Store cheap overnight power and ride out the expensive peaks - with backup when the grid goes down
3. +Solar → Generate at zero marginal cost and fill the battery from your own roof
How the three work together
The panels feed the battery, and the battery decides when to use what it is holding.
1. Generate → Your 7.2 kW array puts roughly 8,640 kWh a year straight into the battery
2. Store → The Fever-1 holds 15 kWh back, from your own panels or from the cheapest wholesale half-hours
3. Use → Your home draws stored power through the evening peak instead of buying at the spike
4. Fall back → The grid is backup, not dependency, and you sell your surplus back at the wholesale price
*Members pay the half-hourly wholesale market price plus our service fee: $0.02 per kWh + GST on consumption, and 10% of the value of electricity fed back into the grid.

*Market services are highly regulated and are treated as a pass-through in the schedule above: we pass on exactly what we are invoiced, with no margin added.
*You have ten working days from joining to change your mind and receive a full refund of the membership fee. After that it is a one-off charge for the term shown - if you leave early there is no break cost, and no refund. Your electricity supply agreement is separate and open-ended, and you can switch away at any time on 30 days’ notice.

See what this would cost you
These are our published numbers. What matters is what they do to your bill.
Send us a recent power bill and we will price that same usage against the actual half-hourly market, so you see the difference on your own consumption rather than an average. It is free, it takes a couple of days, and it commits you to nothing.
If it stacks up, choosing your term and seeing your first invoice is the step after that.
