The Loop Methodology

Most homes end up with solar. Some add a battery. Almost none get the one thing that actually pays off over twenty years: a system where generation, storage, everyday use and the grid work as a single, closed circuit — instead of four separate purchases that happen to share a roof.

HOW THE LOOP WORKS

A CONCEPT FOR THE AUSTRALIAN HOME
1

Generate

Rooftop solar, and where the roof runs out, a solar carport. Every kilowatt-hour The Loop uses starts here — on your own property, not the grid.

2

Store

A battery sized to what your household actually uses, not what's easiest to sell. Power earned at noon is still there when you need it at 7pm.

3

Live

Your HEMS hub reads your heat pump, aircon, EV charger and pool pump in real time, and runs them when your own power is cheapest and cleanest — without you managing a thing.

WHAT CLOSING THE LOOP GETS YOU

💰

Lower, more predictable bills

Because your own generation and storage cover more of your usage before you ever draw from the grid.

💳

Real backup, not just a battery

Your system is sized and configured to actually carry your household through an outage — not just look good on a spec sheet.

🎁

A second income stream

Your battery and appliances get paid for supporting the grid through VPP and demand-response — turning idle capacity into ongoing value.

Is The Loop right for your home?

  • Works best on homes with existing or plannable rooftop solar
  • Battery sizing depends on your actual daily usage pattern, not a fixed package
  • HEMS integration requires compatible smart devices (heat pump, aircon, EV charger, pool pump — we'll confirm compatibility during the assessment)
  • VPP/demand-response eligibility depends on your retailer, meter type and local network

WHY CLOSE THE LOOP WITH ONE LOOP ENERGY

✓

We diagnose before we quote

Your bills and usage come first. The system gets sized to that — not the other way around.

🇦🇺

We show the assumptions

Every figure comes with the reasoning behind it, and a range instead of a single guaranteed number.

⭐

We stay after the install

Monitoring, tuning and support continue for as long as your system does — not just until the invoice clears.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to already have solar to join The Loop?

No — The Loop can be built from scratch (solar + battery + HEMS) or added onto an existing solar system, once we've checked compatibility.

How is my VPP/grid income estimated?

It depends on your retailer, your network tariff, and your battery's size and usage pattern — we walk through the real assumptions during your assessment rather than quoting a fixed number upfront.

What if my roof can't fit enough panels?

That's exactly what the "Generate" stage assessment is for — where a carport, orientation change, or a smaller-but-smarter system can still close the loop.

Does the HEMS work with any brand of battery or EV charger?

Compatibility varies by device — we confirm this against your existing or planned equipment during the assessment, rather than assuming a one-size-fits-all fit.
