If I'm repping the PM, certainly I'll take that on notice. From memory, that would be in the Communications portfolio, so they should have been asked as the appropriate ministry.

But I'm happy to return now to community batteries. The Community Batteries for Household Solar program will maximise the benefits for Australia's rooftop solar transformation, supporting the grid and providing shared storage for up to 10,000 households. The first 48 community batteries, which were announced publicly as election commitments, will be delivered by the business grant hubs. The remaining 342 batteries with unspecified locations will be delivered by ARENA, with applications to open later this year.
