Understand the starting point
- Start with a recent bill and your postcode
- Use smart-meter readings for a clearer picture of when you use electricity
- Note which rooms feel uncomfortable and which appliances need replacing
From a question to a clearer decision
Understand your options before you spend
Energy plans, ratings, rebates and upgrade quotes can be difficult to connect. Australian Energy Assessments brings the explanations, comparison tools and assessment pathways together so you can work out what your home needs and what to confirm next.

- Confirm rebates for the exact work before counting a discount
Get a useful written quote
- Specify the equipment, installation and enabling work
- Check credentials, site suitability, exclusions and support
- Choose to send an enquiry, then decide who to work with
Know what you are getting
Free tools help you prepare. Assessments provide property-specific evidence.
The guides, comparisons, home energy planner and Wattzun guidance are free. Property visits, formal ratings and installation work have their own scope and prices.
Use your bills and household answers to explore options. These tools estimate costs and priorities; they do not inspect the home or issue a rating certificate.

How to use a result well
Plan costs depend on usage, timing, network and eligibility. A published plan ID can help identify an offer, but its rates still need checking against your current bill.
A postcode-based solar estimate reflects local climate. Shade, roof layout, installation and export limits need site-specific checks.
Planning prices are starting points. Enter the complete installed price after confirmed discounts and compare the same equipment and work.
We do not sell household leads or offer paid placement. You decide whether to share an enquiry and whether to accept any quote.
See how the numbers change a decision
Follow four worked examples of plan timing, using solar at home, adding storage and ending a gas connection. Each shows its assumed figures and the next question to ask.
Prefer to talk it through?
A five-minute call helps confirm the right assessment and booking logistics. It is separate from a paid assessment or installation quote.
