AMBER SOLAR & BATTERY INSTALLER: SUPERCHARGING YOUR SAVINGS & PAYBACK

Amber is an energy retailer that gives you direct access to the wholesale electricity market instead of a fixed retail rate. Paired with a battery, that means you can charge up when power is cheap, or get paid to use it, and sell back at genuine peak prices rather than the flat feed-in tariff most retailers offer. Elite Power Group are Amber-partnered solar and battery installers, and we handle the whole setup, hardware and Amber account, so it's actually working from day one.

HOW AMBER ACTUALLY WORKS

Amber charges a flat $25 a month. That's it. No margin added to your electricity, no tiered plans. You buy power at the real wholesale price and sell your solar and battery export at the real wholesale price too, which is where the value comes from: retailers typically pay a fixed feed-in tariff of a few cents per kilowatt-hour, while Amber's wholesale rate can spike to $19/kWh or higher during periods of high demand.

Manually watching wholesale prices and deciding when to charge or discharge a battery isn't realistic for most people, so Amber built SmartShift to do it automatically. It tracks live wholesale prices, weather forecasts and your household's usage pattern, then charges your battery when power is cheap and discharges or exports it when prices rise. You can leave it fully automated, set a goal like maximising savings or keeping backup power in reserve, or take manual control and charge or discharge on demand whenever you want.

WHAT IS AMBER SMARTSHIFT?

Smartshift™ is Amber's smart energy management feature that helps households maximise their solar and battery systems both automatically and manually for more control.

The AI-assisted energy automation looks after when and where your energy is consumed or exported to the grid to achieve the configured goal. These goals can vary from maximising savings to ensuring you always have backup power.

With a tailored plan to your household goals and habits, Amber SmartShift™ automatically adjusts your energy, but can also give you full control if you want to call the shots.

By having the ability to take control when needed, you can discharge your battery at a touch of a button, or you can charge up when you may need some extra energy later.
