Open Energy Collective

Transparent. Cooperative. Battery aggregation for the Australian NEM.

We're an Australian cooperative trying to create an ecosystem where home batteries can be coordinated as a fleet and trade at wholesale energy market prices. Built for the people whose batteries make it possible - with every algorithm decision, fleet forecast, and outcome published for anyone to see.

Principles

What We Want to Build

Fleet Platform

A way to coordinate a fleet of home batteries and decide when to trade and when to save energy, with the reasoning behind every decision published, not hidden.

Public Dashboard

Real-time fleet status, algorithm decisions, and forecast accuracy. Visible to everyone.

Tariff Data Service

Free public API covering Australian DNSPs with demand charges, ToU rates, and seasonal variations.

Home Energy Integrations

Open-source Home Assistant integration for battery owners to understand and optimise their energy costs.

NEMWEB Client

Shared library for AEMO dispatch prices and pre-dispatch forecasts - powers Fleet Platform and open home automations.

Member Portal

Track your battery's earnings, the decisions behind them, and have a say in how it's used.
