Zembl

Zembl, energy procurement specialist for Australian businesses

Zembl presents itself as an energy procurement specialist and total business energy partner. Its activity focuses on helping Australian companies simplify energy management and make smarter energy decisions, from comparing plans and switching suppliers to renewal reminders and ongoing support throughout the entire contract term.

The firm serves both small businesses, with energy bills under $3,000 per month, and larger businesses, with consumption above that threshold. Its client portfolio ranges from small cafés to large manufacturers.

Energy procurement and comparison services

The main service is commercial energy procurement, aimed at businesses with larger or more complex energy requirements. For businesses with simpler needs, the company offers a business energy bill comparison that, it says, allows its experts to find savings and switch you on the spot in a single 10-minute call.

Zembl also advises businesses with multiple sites, with the goal of reducing complexity, consolidating billing and maximising energy efficiency. The firm compares leading Australian energy retailers to find the most suitable solution for each business.

Energy intelligence and efficiency

Commercial customers get continuous analysis of their meter data, which provides insights into their consumption patterns. Based on that information, Zembl's experts create a personalised roadmap to unlock each company's efficiency potential.

The company also provides energy efficiency consulting and implements solutions through its trusted solar and energy efficiency partners. It also offers digital tools to manage energy more efficiently and turn data into concrete actions.
