Commercial and industrial power costs

How much profit is disappearing into your power bill?

High electricity costs. Expensive demand peaks. Unpredictable price changes. Every unnecessary dollar spent on power is a dollar that cannot go into people, equipment, inventory or growth.

We assess, fund, coordinate and operate approved onsite solar and battery systems. Your business buys the electricity supplied at an agreed commercial rate—with no upfront equipment purchase.

The problem

Your power bill may be taking more than you realise.

Most businesses keep paying because power is essential. That does not mean the existing arrangement is the best available option.

01

High grid energy costs

Every purchased unit comes directly off operating margin.

02

Demand charges

One short production peak may influence a material component of the bill.

03

Future uncertainty

Retailer, network and fixed costs can be difficult to budget.

04

Capital trapped in power

Money spent on energy cannot be reinvested into people, machinery or growth.

05

Connection limits

Inadequate supply may constrain new equipment or expansion.

06

Diesel and disruption

Fuel, outages and restart costs compound the financial problem.

The cost of waiting

Doing nothing is still a decision.

A power bill is not a one-off expense. It keeps arriving every month—and even modest changes compound over time.

Monthly spend$25,000
Current annual spend$300,000
Five years, flat pricing$1.50m
Five years, 5% scenario$1.74m

Illustrative scenario, not a forecast. Actual costs depend on the customer’s contract, tariff, consumption and location.

The cost most businesses miss

Your bill is not only about how much electricity you use.

Depending on your tariff, a short period of high demand may materially affect the bill. Solar may reduce grid purchases. Where the load and tariff support it, batteries can help manage when and how sharply power is drawn.

The alternative

You do not need to keep buying power the same way.

A suitable site may generate and store more electricity onsite. We assess and fund approved infrastructure, then coordinate delivery and operation so your business does not have to purchase the equipment upfront.

The funded solution

Funded by us. Managed by us. Built around your power bill.

The customer keeps running the business. We look after the energy infrastructure.

1

We assess it

Bill, meter data, tariff, demand peaks, roof and operating profile.

2

We fund it

Australian Onsite Energy provides the capital for the approved system.

3

We coordinate delivery

Specialist partners handle engineering, approvals, equipment, installation and commissioning.

4

We operate it

Monitoring and maintenance under the final agreement.

5

You buy the onsite power

Electricity is supplied under a long-term power purchase agreement.

6

The system works across the day

Solar serves the load; where appropriate, batteries shift energy or manage peaks, and approved surplus may be exported.

What changes

Lower-cost onsite energy. No upfront equipment purchase.

The grid continues supplying electricity whenever the onsite system cannot meet the complete load. Residual grid energy, network and fixed charges may still change.

Preliminary fit

Could your site be paying less for power?

Roof area is only the beginning. The load, tariff, demand peaks, tenure, credit and network connection determine whether the opportunity works.

  • Material commercial or industrial electricity spend
  • Meaningful daytime, shift-based or peak demand
  • Approximately 400 square metres or more of usable roof
  • Space for battery and electrical equipment
  • Stable occupancy and property-owner support
  • Openness to a long-term energy agreement

Common questions

Before you start.

What does “no upfront equipment purchase” mean?
Australian Onsite Energy funds the approved equipment and project. Your business purchases the onsite electricity delivered under the final power purchase agreement.
Will our complete power bill stop increasing?
No provider can honestly control every grid, network or fixed charge. The system is intended to reduce grid purchases and provide an agreed rate for the onsite electricity supplied.
Will we still use the grid?
Usually, yes. The grid supplies electricity whenever the onsite solar and battery system cannot meet the complete load.
Can a tenant qualify?
Potentially. The property owner normally needs to participate in the approval and contractual process.
Do I need a power bill to use the quiz?
No. The quiz creates a preliminary result. An energy specialist requests the bill later if the site warrants a detailed assessment.

Another power bill will arrive next month.

The question is whether your business keeps paying the same way—or finds out what could be done differently.
