Embedded Network Owners

An Embedded Network is a private energy network designed for precincts with multiple tenants or customers — think apartment blocks, shopping centres, industrial estates, and more. Instead of each customer having a separate electricity account, the entire network connects to the grid through a single consolidated connection. That electricity is then on-sold to individual customers based on their actual usage.

Why does this matter? Because buying electricity in bulk through one connection can significantly lower the total cost of power across the site. That cost saving often creates a surplus, which the Network Owner can reinvest in ways that benefit everyone—like

Lowering electricity rates for customers

Sourcing power from renewables

Installing solar panels or battery storage

Funding site-wide upgrades or sustainability initiatives

Embedded Networks are frequently found in Apartment Buildings, Office Towers, Retirement Villages, Shopping Centres, Industrial Estates, Airports, Caravan Parks, Hotels and Resorts.

They operate via a central access point, referred to as the parent meter, which serves as the primary interface with the external electricity grid.
