Fox ESS, a prominent provider of renewable energy solutions, has announced that Fox ESS customers in parts of Australia can now seamlessly connect their home energy storage systems to Origin’s virtual power plant (VPP), known as Origin Loop VPP.

Origin Loop VPP uses smart automation to connect and manage a vast network of home energy devices – like home batteries. By joining Origin Loop VPP, customers with a Fox ESS battery can help support the grid while earning credits towards their energy bills.

Fox ESS has recently launched the CQ6 High Voltage Battery. Featuring a higher energy density and a modular design, the battery empowers homeowners to maximise their potential benefits under local rebate schemes.

This partnership builds on Fox ESS’s ongoing expansion in Australia, as highlighted by Sunwiz, a leading solar energy consultancy, which named Fox ESS the Top Growth Leader for 2025. The company has strengthened its service network and broadened compatibility with leading VPP platforms to deliver greater value to households embracing clean energy.

Through this new integration, Fox ESS end-users can now access Origin’s suite of home battery plans:

Chris Zondanos, General Manager of Electrify and New Connections at Origin, stated: “We’re delighted to be working with the team at Fox ESS. Their batteries have quickly become a popular choice in the Australian market, and this integration reflects our commitment to provide more options for our customers to get the best value.”

Brooks Richard, APAC Managing Director of Fox ESS, shared that: “Origin VPP represents a transformative step in the Australian energy landscape, combining versatility with a strong focus on customer needs. Its integration of weather intelligence, market insights, and real-time energy optimisation aligns perfectly with Fox ESS’s high-performance storage systems. Together, we are not only enabling Australian households to maximise the value of their solar and battery investments but also fostering a more resilient and sustainable energy future.”
