This strategic deal will supercharge Climatech Zero’s growth and enable both companies to accelerate the energy transition for large industrial customers
Climatech Zero, a market-leading energy management and decarbonisation partner for industrials, has entered into a strategic partnership with Origin Energy (Origin).

Operating across Australia and New Zealand, Climatech Zero has strong customer retention across its customer base including major industrials.
Co-founder and CEO of Climatech Zero, Peter O’Connell said, “This partnership was born out of a mutual passion for aligning with the needs and ambitions of our large industrial customers to use less energy and reduce emissions. We’re thrilled to partner with Origin in delivering on that ambition and we commend Origin for continuing to be ahead of the curve. Our expertise providing transition services behind the meter combines perfectly with Origin’s forward-thinking goals to support clients through the energy transition.
“Our business continues to grow year on year – we’re on target for 300% revenue growth in FY2024 off a strong base. From an ambitious start-up in 2018 to now generating double-digit million revenue, having the support of one of Australia’s leading energy companies is significant and offers potential for further growth.
“Working together with Origin, we can offer more value to Australian industrial companies. Our resources, technology and skills can help customers underwrite new investments, improve existing operations and ultimately accelerate the energy transition journey.”
