Vicinity, Australia

Trading solar power from shopping center rooftops Australian retail investment company Vicinity Centres is using Power Ledger's platform to trial trading solar energy generated within its shopping centers.

Client summary

The trial was rolled out at Roxburgh Village in Victoria. This was the first centre to integrate the energy blockchain technology as part of Vicinity’s AU$75 million industry-leading solar program.

How the technology works

The blockchain technology will enable Vicinity to manage its energy use and distribution in near real-time, switching between solar and national grid energy.

We see our partnership with Power Ledger as a significant opportunity to unlock a future of more competitive energy prices for our retailers and customers while potentially sharing clean, renewable energy to the communities surrounding our centers.
