Revenue offset

If a customer would like to be considered for revenue offset, some information is required at the technial assessment stage. See our revenue offset FAQs for more information.

 

Your support documents will help us determine the future increase in electricity consumption at your site so we can confidently apply revenue offset to subsidise the upfront customer contribution.
