Most companies lock into a power contract, forget about it, and quietly watch their bills creeping upwards each year. Between managing staff, controlling supplier costs, and serving clients, running a business leaves little time to scan energy rates.
Even if you switch suppliers today, market rates continuously fluctuate, both up and down, meaning you will never actually be staying on the lowest rate. SaveAWatt was built to mitigate this issue in commercial energy procurement, ensuring businesses get the best deal for their usage.
By combining the collective buying power of the businesses we support with tech-led market analysis, SaveAWatt’s automated platform continuously scans the market and keeps you on the optimal rate month after month.
The “set it and forget it" power bill
Energy pricing in New Zealand is notoriously complex. Between peak rates, line charges, prompt payment discounts, and shifting wholesale costs, calculating whether your business is on the right plan requires constant monitoring.
Energy suppliers count on two main factors: lack of time to consistently view comparison tenders, and market limitations to negotiate on an individual basis.
This results in overspending on normalised higher energy bills.
How the SaveAWatt platform automates your energy savings
SaveAWatt acts as an automated energy manager on your side. Rather than running a one-time comparison, our smart platform monitors rates and usage profiles continuously behind the scenes.
1. Smart usage matching
No two business operational hours are identical. A bakery operating from 3am to midday has very different load requirements than an office operating 9am to 5pm. SaveAWatt’s platform analyses your actual consumption patterns to identify which provider structure yields the lowest cost for your specific needs.
2. Group buying power
SaveAWatt acts on behalf of a number of businesses, and because of this, can negotiate collective group rates that individual businesses simply cannot access on their own.
3. Continuous monthly comparisons & switching
Market conditions change, supplier promotions expire, and tariffs shift. SaveAWatt compares your current rate against every available deal on the market monthly. When a better structure opens up, our team manages the switch seamlessly - no forms to fill out, no calls with power companies, and zero interruption to your supply.
