This milestone confirms that Anker Solix battery systems meet the technical and operational standards required to play an active role in helping maintain a stable, secure, and resilient power grid in two of Australia’s most energy-progressive states.

“This approval not only reinforces the reliability of the Anker Solix X1 home battery system but also highlights our commitment to supporting Australia’s clean energy transition,” said Sachin Sardana, Snr. Business Development Manager, Anker Solix AANZ. “We’re proud to be part of a solution that empowers homes and businesses while also supporting the broader grid.”

The Emergency Backstop Mechanism is a government-backed measure designed to protect the electricity network by coordinating behind-the-meter technologies like batteries to reduce demand or provide support during critical events.

With this approval, Anker Solix continues its momentum in the Australian energy storage market following the launch of its Anker Solix X1 Hybrid and AC-Coupled series, and strengthens its partnerships with solar retailers, installers, and distributors nationwide.

Key benefits of the approval:

· Recognition from Victorian and South Australian DNSPs of Anker Solix as a grid-ready solution

· Enhanced installer and homeowner confidence in system reliability

· Contribution to local energy resilience and grid support initiatives
