How it works

Sign up

If you have a qualifying home battery storage system, you may be eligible to participate. Enrollment only takes a few minutes.

Support a more sustainable grid

During times of high energy demand, Entergy New Orleans may send signals to your battery’s inverter to temporarily share stored energy. These short, automatic adjustments help reduce strain on the grid, lower emissions, and keep electricity more affordable for everyone.

Earn money

For every event your battery participates in, you’ll earn money — up to maximum of $600 for residential customers and $1,800 for commercial customers. Incentives are based on your system’s size and performance.

About the Program

Batteries do more than provide backup power — they can store clean energy from your home solar system or charge from the grid when electricity is less expensive.

By enrolling in the Entergy New Orleans VPP program, you’ll earn money for allowing Entergy New Orleans to use the energy stored in your battery during times of high demand. This shared energy helps keep the grid balanced and supports the increased use of renewable power across your community.

Most participants earn around $360 per year, but actual incentives vary based on your battery’s performance during grid events. Performance depends on factors such as battery size, configuration, and internet connectivity. Your installer can help you estimate your expected earnings.

Put your battery to work for you and your community. Enroll today to start earning rewards and supporting a cleaner energy future.
