What energyOS does

energyOS is a privately held Australian software company that builds and sells the eOS cloud platform to electric utilities, network operators, and government agencies. Founded in 2014 as a spin-off of CSIRO, Australia's national science agency, the company commercializes technology originally developed inside CSIRO to help utilities respond to the energy transition. Its customer base is concentrated in Australia, where rooftop solar penetration exceeds 32% of households and reverse-cycle air conditioning exceeds 50%, conditions that have materially reshaped utility load profiles and economics. eOS ingests data from a utility's meter-to-cash and CRM systems and enriches it with third-party feeds including weather data and NASA solar irradiance, producing customer-level profiles segmented on load profile, gross margin, carbon footprint, and customer spend.

The platform is organized into six integrated modules covering customer profiling, segment analysis, retail product and tariff design, behind-the-meter technology simulation (rooftop solar, heat pumps, batteries, EVs, air conditioners), go-to-market customer ranking and personalized recruitment, and customer support tooling with what-if scenario evaluation. The technology stack is technology-agnostic with respect to consumer hardware, and the company emphasizes the scientific heritage of its underlying models. Distribution is enterprise field sales with strategic collaborations with leading enterprise software vendors and management consultants, targeting utility buyers in Australia and, via a Calgary office, North America.

Commercially, energyOS operates a subscription-based enterprise licensing model with annual billing and quote-based pricing rather than published tiers. Revenue mechanics are not publicly disclosed, and the company is not investment-backed according to available data. With a headcount of 1-10 across offices in Perth, Sydney (co-located with CSIRO), and Calgary, energyOS is a small, specialist vendor competing in the niche of utility customer analytics and DER-aware tariff design. Leadership disclosure is limited to a single named non-executive director, Al Taylor, reflecting either a lean operating model or limited public reporting.

Core offering

energyOS sells the eOS cloud-based software platform to utilities, network operators, and government agencies, enabling them to evaluate energy-transition changes, design retail rates and network tariffs, profile and segment customers using meter-to-cash and CRM data enriched with weather and NASA solar irradiance, simulate behind-the-meter technologies (rooftop solar, heat pumps, batteries, EVs, air conditioners), rank customers for targeted product rollouts, and equip customer support teams with what-if analysis tools. The platform is delivered as enterprise software licensing with customized implementations per utility.

Product overview

eOS (energyOS) is a unified cloud-based software platform for utilities that evaluates changes from the energy transition and develops new products and services. The platform consists of integrated modules: Profile Your Customers (ingests meter-to-cash, CRM, and third-party data to create customer profiles and segments), Analyse Segments (analyzes load profiles, gross margin, carbon footprint, and customer spend), Retail Products & Pricing (assists with rate and tariff design), Consumer Technologies (simulates behind-the-meter technologies including Rooftop Solar, Heat Pump, and Battery Evaluators), Go-to-Market (ranks customers and enables personalised recruitment using Device Evaluators, DER Evaluators, and Utility Product Bundles), and Customer Support (provides Rate Recommenders and What If analysis tools). The platform integrates all modules to deliver end-to-end energy services.
