Setting up solar sharing for your business using community trades 📄

Written by Lisa Cowgill

If your business properties have been set up in Powertracer in the same trading community (if you’re unsure then check with your retailer or Enosi first) then a quick and easy way to trade excess solar between the properties is to set up community trades as follows:

  • Log into Powertracer

  • Click on 'Manage property' for one of your properties

  • Click on Trade Rules (top of screen)

  • Scroll down to Community Trades

  • Click on "Set community trade rules" button

  • Type in 0 (zero) in both Minimum sell price and Maximum buy price (if you want to trade energy at 0c/kWh)

  • Click "Set" button

  • Repeat for each of your properties

If you require traceability of your energy (knowing which property has bought/sold to another property) then a different set up is required using peer-to-peer trades. Refer to this article for more information:
