Energy broker for South Brisbane and South Bank precinct
Hospo, hotels, and cultural-precinct retail in South Brisbane sit on tariffs that punish summer peak. We restructure to off-peak/shoulder/peak time-of-use where it makes sense — and to flat rate where it doesn't.
We're paid by the energy retailer when you switch — never by you.

South Brisbane cafes
Cafes run on tight margins, long opening hours, and demand profiles that look weirdly different to a retailer's standard SME quote. We re-shape the contract until it fits.

Gyms push AC, lights, and equipment during peak windows that don't match standard tariffs. We optimise the contract around your actual open-window — not a generic profile.

SEQ manufacturers running production lines, compressors, and ovens sit firmly in C&I territory. We tender to a tighter panel and get bid pricing.

Compressors, hoists, welders — workshops have inrush demand that retailers either price punitively or fairly. We pick the fair one.

Clinics run predictable business-hours demand: imaging, sterilisation, AC. Predictable = leverage. We use it.

Pubs and bars push refrigeration, AC, and bistro kitchens long into the night. The right tariff turns that into your bill's friend, not enemy. We find it.

Restaurants live on the demand-charge tightrope: peak service windows, cooking gas, refrigeration around the clock. We price all three properly — together.

Boutique retail, homewares, and lifestyle stores have clean daytime demand profiles. Retailers love quoting on those — we make them compete for it.

Hair, beauty, and nail salons run a steady demand curve — hot tools, washbasins, lots of AC. Predictable curves are leverage we use to negotiate harder.

Warehouses sit on usage profiles that put them within reach of C&I rates not normally offered to SMEs. We push them up the panel where it pays.

We're paid by the energy retailer when you switch — never by you.
When we move your account to a new retailer, that retailer pays us a commission — partly upfront, partly as a trail while you're with them. Your rate is your rate. There's no markup, no broker fee on your invoice, no monthly subscription.
We disclose the commission existence on every quote. If you want to know the exact dollar amount on a deal, ask. We'll tell you.
This is why we win on transparency: we'd rather show you the maths than dress up the savings.
