What makes us different

What you get with Utilizer

Strategy built around your business rather than a standard offer, from people who know Australia's energy market and stay with you once the contract is signed.

Talk to a specialist

  • Trusted partnerships

    Long-standing relationships with Australia's most recognised energy retailers give your tender weight, and give us insight into how they price.

  • Cost reduction focus

    Strategic procurement and tariff optimisation bring down what you pay for electricity and gas, including the savings others miss.

  • Bespoke recommendations

    Whether the goal is cost, an embedded network, solar or net zero, the recommendation is built around it, with the reasoning shown.

  • Simplified energy management

    Clear, straight communication that takes the guesswork out and the workload off your team, from start to finish.

  • A named strategist

    One energy strategist who knows your portfolio works as part of your team, with expert guidance at every step.

Side by side

Consultant or broker? Ask before you sign

The two words get used interchangeably. The business models behind them are very different, and these questions show it quickly.

  1. How are they paid?

    Utilizer, energy consultant
    A fee paid by the provider you select, disclosed in writing in the client authority you sign, and the same whichever provider that is.
    A typical broker
    Commission from the retailer, often not disclosed to you.

  2. How much of the market do they test?

    Utilizer, energy consultant
    A competitive tender to leading retailers, built around your portfolio and priorities.
    A typical broker
    The retailers on the panel that pays them.

  3. Who makes the decision?

    Utilizer, energy consultant
    You do. Every offer is compared side by side with our recommendation, and the final call is yours.
    A typical broker
    Often one offer, presented as the one to sign.

  4. Who do you deal with afterwards?

    Utilizer, energy consultant
    A named strategist who stays with you through the contract and into the next renewal.
    A typical broker
    Contact tends to stop once the contract is signed.

  5. What can you see?

    Utilizer, energy consultant
    Your contracts, invoices and sites in the Empower Portal, whenever you want to look.
    A typical broker
    Whatever you track yourself.
