Introducing our newest offering – Origin Home. Wherever you are on your energy journey, we’re here to help you access what you need to bring your bills down and take control. Welcome home. 

So what is Origin Home?

We know every household uses their energy a little bit differently, and that we all have different goals when it comes to the way we interact with energy every day. Whether you’re just looking to keep your bills down, or you have greater ambitions, Origin Home is a new platform to help you take control of what matters to you.

What is your energy goal?

We have a range of solutions tailored to help you achieve your energy goals. When you arrive on the Origin Home website, simply ‘choose your adventure’ from the available options below and we’ll give you all the info you need to get started on your journey. We’re also here to help, every step of the way.

I’m just trying to get my bills down

We know many Aussie household budgets are tightening due to ongoing cost-of-living pressures. If reducing your energy bill is your main goal, we have a range of ways to help you take control. From conducting an energy plan health-check, ensuring any applicable concessions and rebates are applied to your account, to helping you understand your usage patterns, and habits, so you can turn insights into action – we’re here to guide you. We also have a range of helpful tips and tricks that can help you create energy-conscious habits.

I’m thinking about upgrades to save long-term

If you’re ready to dive into the next phase of your energy journey, there are plenty of ways Origin Home can help. If you’re ready to invest in solar, our Solar Assessment Tool uses 3D data, visual artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced analytics to generate a quick and fully personalised solar report for your home – all you need to do is answer a few questions and let it calculate everything for you.  
 
Perhaps you’re looking to start electrifying your home and reduce your reliance on gas? Our step-by-step guide can show you where to begin. Or maybe you’re at the very beginning of your upgrade journey, that’s okay too, we have plenty of helpful tips to help you make energy-efficient choices when it’s time to upgrade your household appliances.

I want to get more from my energy assets

If you’ve already invested in solar or batteries – or both – we can help you get the most out of your investment. Our expert advice can help you ensure your solar system is running optimally and you’re not wasting any of the energy you’re generating. Our Solar team can help you decide when it’s the right time to add a solar battery to your set up, or even consider making the switch to an electric vehicle (EV). In fact, our Origin 360 EV team have a range of end-to-end solutions to suit your needs when the time comes. 

I’m an expert looking for the latest tech

So, you’re ahead of the curve and you love all things future energy – there’s plenty on offer for you too, including our Virtual Power Plant (VPP), Loop.  

Loop virtually connects thousands of batteries and solar panels across Australia and combines them into one big power plant. Allowing our customers to be part of a smart, connected energy network, contribute to a cleaner energy future, and, be rewarded for it.   

If you’re in the market for, or have already purchased, an electric vehicle (EV) our 360 EV team are helping drive good change! We have end-to-end solutions including EV subscriptions and salary packaging and can help you take charge of your EV energy needs with our clever Smart Charging scheduling options. There’s also Power Saver, a feature that avoids charging from 3pm to 9pm — which could save you up to $180 a year on your electricity bill.

I’m moving house

Moving house is a stressful experience for many of us, but with Origin Home it needn’t be. We’re here to help make moving a breeze. You can organise your energy and internet accounts in minutes online, and we’ll take care of the rest. We’ve also got a range of helpful life hacks, and even packing tips, to help make moving day even easier. And best of all, with our Move Promise we’ll make sure your power’s on the next business day (when you book online before 1pm, Monday to Friday, other T&Cs apply).  

Whatever your energy goals and needs, Origin Home is with you every step of the way. Guiding you to great value today, and cleaner energy solutions tomorrow.
