Business gas, without the burn.
Gas pricing is its own confusing world, gigajoules, daily supply, demand. We translate it, compare it, and find you a sharper rate from the retailer panel.
In short: commercial gas is billed in gigajoules across three charges, a usage rate, a daily supply charge, and sometimes a demand charge. We translate it, compare the gas retailers on your actual bill, and switch you to a sharper rate. We're paid by the energy retailer when you switch, never by you.
Three things almost every business owner gets confused about on gas.
The units are different
Gas isn't billed in kilowatt-hours like electricity. It's billed in gigajoules (GJ) or megajoules (MJ). One GJ is roughly the energy a small commercial kitchen uses in a few hours.
There are three charges, not one
A gas bill has a usage rate (per GJ), a daily supply charge (fixed per day), and sometimes a demand charge for high-consumption sites. Each can be re-quoted separately.
Same retailer, wildly different prices
Gas pricing isn't standardised the way electricity is. A 15-minute conversation with the right retailer rep can move the price more on gas than on electricity. We do that conversation.
We do the conversation. You get the result.
Gas pays back hardest for hospitality.
If your business has a commercial kitchen, gas is usually 20–40% of your energy spend. That makes savings on gas often bigger in absolute terms than savings on electricity, even though the unit volumes are smaller.
Most likely candidates: restaurants and pubs with full à la carte kitchens · bakeries, breweries, food production · hotels and accommodation with central hot water · manufacturers with process heat (ovens, furnaces, dryers) · laundries and dry cleaners · aged-care and hospital catering kitchens.
Three places we always check.
Default rates after expiry
Gas contracts often roll to default rates 15–30% above market. We re-quote at renewal, and stay ahead of the cycle so you never get caught.
Wrong demand tier
Volume tiers in commercial gas tariffs are often set wrong at sign-up. We right-size, sometimes drops you a tier, which drops the unit rate.
Overstated bundle discount
Some retailers offer "bundle gas + electricity" deals where the bundle discount disappears against quoting both separately. We test both before we recommend.

We're tied to no one. We compare your gas bill across the panel, and test bundling it with power where that wins.
