    Active energy management for commercial and industrial sites in WA

    WA commercial and industrial sites with high energy spend, peak-demand exposure, or existing solar that isn't pulling its weight. We actively manage your energy assets so the cost of running your site goes down.

    The Cost Problem

    Commercial energy costs in WA are moving in one direction.

    The cost of running a WA commercial or industrial site is restructuring underneath you. Network demand charges are weighted heavier every cycle. Reserve capacity charges are being rebuilt. Time-of-use windows are sharpening. Solar export rules are tightening. See how the WA market is changing.

    The businesses that absorb these changes by paying more will. The businesses that put their energy assets under active management won't.

    Peak Demand

    The single biggest line on your bill.

    Most WA commercial sites pay more in demand charges than for the energy itself. One bad 30-minute window sets the cost for an entire month.

    Time-of-Use

    When you use it matters more every year.

    The price difference between peak and off-peak windows is widening. Sites that can shift load capture the spread. Sites that can't, pay it.

    Reserve Capacity

    A charge most operators don't see.

    WA commercial sites contribute to system reserve capacity costs based on their peak demand contribution. The methodology is changing and most sites will pay more.

    Solar Export

    Yesterday's good investment.

    The rules around what solar can export and when are tightening. Unmanaged solar is becoming an underperforming asset on commercial roofs.

    What Changes Under Active Management

    Four levers we work on every commercial site.

    Demand Peak Management

    We move load and storage before the peak sets.

    The platform forecasts your peak window every interval. Load shifts, battery discharges, and consumption decisions all happen before the demand charge triggers. Not after.

    Tariff Position

    We optimise around your tariff. We don't fight it.

    We work with your existing retailer and your existing supply arrangement. The platform makes sure you're on the right tariff structure, in the right windows, with the right charging behaviour underneath.

    Solar Orchestration

    Your solar, working with the market.

    Solar isn't always best running flat out. We make the call every interval. Run hard, stand down, store, discharge to load, or discharge to grid. Read more on active management of solar generation.

    Battery Operation

    If you have one, we run it. If you don't, we'll tell you whether to.

    A battery is a serious capex decision. We model the case before you buy. If a battery is right for the site, we operate it from day one. If it isn't, you keep your money. More on commercial battery management.

    Who It's For

    Built for the sites that wear it.

    Active management is a cost lever before it's anything else. It works hardest on sites where energy is a material line. A non-exhaustive list of the site types where we add the most:

    Light Industrial

    Manufacturing, food processing, cold storage. Variable load profile and high demand exposure.

    Large Retail

    Shopping centres, supermarkets, big-box retail. Long operating hours and high peak demand.

    Hospitality

    Hotels, pubs, function venues. Consistent base load with sharp peaks.

    Commercial Office

    Office towers and business parks. HVAC-led demand profiles that respond well to load shifting.

    Healthcare

    Aged care, day surgeries, allied health. Critical load with material consumption.

    Logistics

    Warehouses, distribution centres, cold chain. Increasing exposure to peak demand and EV fleet charging.

    How It Works

    From site review to live operation.

    01 · Site Review

    We model the gap.

    We look at your last 12 months of consumption, your tariff structure, and any assets already on site. The output is a quantified difference between current performance and active management. The review is free.

    02 · Integrate or Scope

    We work with what you have.

    Existing solar, batteries, or controls get integrated. We don't replace your installer, your retailer, or your equipment. Where new hardware is justified, we scope it and work with your preferred installer.

    03 · Operate

    We run the assets every interval.

    Demand peaks, tariff windows, market participation, solar interaction. You get a monthly view of what the platform earned, what it saved, and what it decided.

    Common Questions

    Questions we get before sites sign up.

    Site-dependent. The free site review quantifies it for your specific consumption pattern, tariff, and asset mix. Sites with material peak-demand exposure typically see the largest movement.

    No. We work with whatever retailer you have. We optimise your tariff structure and supply arrangement with them.

    Demand-side active management still applies. Load shifting, tariff optimisation, and demand-charge reduction work without on-site generation. If a battery or solar would change the maths, we'll tell you.

    No. The platform works within the operational constraints you set. We don't shut down production or change the way the site runs. We change the timing of flexible loads and the behaviour of energy assets.

    Two to six weeks for most sites, depending on integration depth and the assets already in place.

    A combination of subscription and value-capture share. You don't pay us unless the platform is performing.
