Take control of your home energy

Smart Energy was founded in 2016 by Beau Savage and Elliot Hayes, driven by a passion to provide Australians with better, more sustainable energy solutions. Frustrated by the profit-driven energy industry, they set out to create a company that would put customers at the heart of everything it does. Over the years, Smart Energy has grown into an industry leader, installing over 500,000 solar panels, 5,000 batteries, and supporting more than 25,000 happy customers across Australia.

With a commitment to quality and customer care, Smart Energy focuses on empowering Australian households with reliable, cost-effective solar and energy storage solutions. By offering custom systems tailored to each home’s needs, Smart Energy ensures long-term value and energy independence. The company has been recognised for its innovation, industry growth, and award-winning customer care, including its Smart Care aftercare program. Now partnered with Rinnai, Smart Energy continues to expand its range of products and services, helping more Australians electrify their homes for a sustainable future.

At Smart Energy, we take a different approach. We’re not a short-term solar provider or a one-size-fits-all installer. We’re a national team of engineers, specialists, and electricians focused on helping Australians generate, store, and manage their energy with high-quality, long-lasting solutions.

With over 300 staff across 18 offices, we’ve powered 25,000 homes and installed more than 500,000 solar panels. Our goal is to help households transition to smarter, more efficient energy systems that reduce reliance on the grid and provide long-term savings.

Every home is different, so we design systems to match individual needs rather than offering a standardised solution. We use high-quality components, expert engineering, and certified local installers to ensure reliability and performance. Our service extends beyond installation, with strong warranties and ongoing support through our Smart Care program.

We focus on quality over shortcuts, ensuring systems are built to last. When it comes to energy, reliability matters—and we’re committed to providing solutions that homeowners can count on for years to come.

Home electrification is all about upgrading your home to run on clean, efficient electricity instead of costly fossil fuels. This means replacing gas appliances, petrol and diesel cars, and inefficient older electrical appliances with modern, high-performance electric alternatives that are cheaper to run. But the real game-changer is generating and storing your own renewable energy with solar panels and a battery. 

Instead of relying on expensive grid electricity, you can power your home and charge your EV using free energy from the sun – day and night. This not only protects you from rising energy prices but also gives you more control over how and when you use your power. Whether you start with solar and battery, or with upgrading to energy-efficient appliances, Smart Energy can guide you through the process and help you maximise your savings.

Installing solar and a battery is one of the most powerful ways to take control of your energy, slash your bills, and protect yourself from rising electricity costs. With solar panels, you generate free energy from the sun during the day, reducing your reliance on the grid. Adding a battery takes it to the next level—storing excess solar power so you can use it at night or during peak times when electricity is most expensive.

But the benefits don’t stop there. A solar and battery system sets you up for the future, making it easier to transition to an electric vehicle and power it with your own free energy instead of expensive petrol. It also opens the door to home energy management systems that help you optimise when and how you use power, supercharging your savings. Beyond just cutting costs, you’re also gaining true energy independence—less affected by power price hikes, grid outages, or extreme weather—while significantly reducing your carbon footprint.

Whether you’re looking to future-proof your home, increase its value, or enjoy the freedom of producing and using your own clean energy, solar and batteries are an investment that pays off in more ways than one. Smart Energy can help you design the perfect setup to maximise your savings and take full advantage of this exciting shift towards smarter, cleaner energy.
