Offers with conditions

These GloBird Energy offers pay a feed-in only if you meet a condition, so none of them is the headline rate above. The condition is in plain words, with the start of the retailer's own wording underneath.

Time-varying options

A time-varying feed-in pays a different rate depending on when you export. Because the rate moves through the day, it's listed here rather than compared with the flat rates above.

GloBird Energy's VPP and battery programs

GloBird ZEROHERO VPP

Battery VPP · Open to new customers · NSW, QLD, SA and VIC

ZEROHERO is GloBird's battery plan: a $1/day credit when you avoid grid power from 6 to 9pm, and up to 10c/kWh for up to 15 kWh a day of battery exports in that window. The optional VPP add-on lets GloBird run your battery remotely.

The program pages list the credits, eligible batteries, reserve and lock-in terms from GloBird Energy's own pages, with the date each was checked. The AER plan data also lists 3 GloBird Energy feed-in offer groups that need a battery or VPP enrolment; they're in the conditions table above.

Solar Sharer plans

Solar Sharer plans charge nothing for power you use during a set midday window, up to a daily limit. The AER plan data lists GloBird Energy Solar Sharer plans in NSW, QLD and SA. How the offer works, and every retailer's plans, are on our Solar Sharer page.

State Free window Free usage limit Feed-in on these plans Plans
NSW Essential Energy Standard, Endeavour and Ausgrid 11am–2pm daily 24 kWh a day 0c/kWh 6
QLD Energex 11am–2pm daily 24 kWh a day 0c/kWh 2

Rate history

We started recording snapshots of the AER plan data on 28 September 2026, so GloBird Energy's history here starts then. The first snapshot was a partial pull (15 retailers) that included GloBird Energy. The table shows the best generally available flat rate in each snapshot.

State 28 Sept 202629 Sept 20261 Oct 2026
NSW 10c, first 8 kWh, then 3c10c, first 8 kWh, then 3c10c, first 8 kWh, then 3c

QLD 10c, first 8 kWh, then 2c10c, first 8 kWh, then 2c10c, first 8 kWh, then 2c
SA 1c, no cap1c, no cap1c, no cap

No change between 28 Sept 2026 and 1 Oct 2026. 3 snapshots 3 days apart can't show a trend; the table gains a column each time we refresh the data.

What an export is worth

At 10c/kWh on the first 8 kWh a day (NSW and QLD), the first tier pays at most $0.80 a day, or $292 over a year in which you export past the cap every day. Every kWh after the cap earns 3c in NSW; 2c in QLD. Each kWh of solar you use yourself instead saves a kWh at your plan's usage rate, which is on the same plan's fact sheet.

Our savings calculator estimates both halves for your postcode and system size, and a home battery stores daytime solar for the evening instead of exporting it.
