Transitioning our electricity grid towards renewables is one of the most important and complex challenges of our time. But what does it take to shift an entire grid to renewables? In Season 2 of So Watt? we explore how the transition to renewable energy will actually work, from the people on the ground making it all happen.</p> So Watt? is brought to you by <a href="https://originenergy.com.au">Origin</a>, with production from the team at <a href="https://lawson.media">Lawson Media</a>.

Large-scale solar and wind are vital to the future of our energy network. However if we want to transition to a fully renewable grid, we need to find a way to store the excess energy we get from wind and solar, so we can keep the lights on at night. That means we need batteries, and a lot of them. But how could some of our oldest energy sources be key to unlocking the grid of the future?

Artificial intelligence may sound like an idea from science fiction, but it’s being used every day to unlock new opportunities across our energy grid. Whether it’s smart charging, smart appliances, or even virtual power plants, the electricity grid of the future could deliver new possibilities for the network and our homes.

Have you ever wanted to be part of something bigger? Technology and AI is enabling the creation of virtual power plants (VPPs) that connect your home battery to a network of smart devices, and export your stored renewable energy to the grid when it’s needed. So why would you want to be part of a VPP? How does it work? And what do you need to get in on this new form of energy generation?

Batteries have the potential to change the way we use energy in our homes. They allow us to store solar energy and give us access to that power at night. They’re also becoming increasingly important to keep our entire energy network operational. But should you go out and invest in a home battery right now? And what new battery tech is coming down the pipeline?

Australians love solar. In fact, more than 3 million homes already have panels installed. So what is it about solar that we love so much? What should we look for when installing rooftop solar? And how are we able to take heat from the sun and convert it into free power?
