In short: Termina is not an energy broker. A broker is paid a commission by the retailer that wins your contract, and that commission is built into the rate you pay. We refuse retailer commissions and are paid only from a share of what we actually save you.

What Adelaide businesses are actually paying
South Australian prices are among the highest in the country, which makes the gap between a default tariff and a tendered one larger here than almost anywhere. 688 Adelaide business locations buy through Termina as part of a group of 10,000+ across Australia and New Zealand. $11.2M+ saved so far. On small business plans, there’s $0 cost unless we save you money.
Termina tenders the South Australian market for 688 Adelaide business locations and is paid only from a share of what it saves. The most common network tariff across those sites is SA Power Networks' SBTOU.
Demand charges matter as much as the rate. For Adelaide manufacturers they can exceed 50% of total energy cost, and SA Power Networks demand tariffs penalise peak usage hard. A lower usage rate on the wrong demand tariff can still leave you worse off.
What we review
- Your demand profile against every SA Power Networks tariff available to your meter
- Peak exposure, and whether load can be shifted before it is priced
- Every South Australian retailer, not a commission-paying panel
- Contract end dates across all your sites in one view
SA Power Networks delivers your electricity regardless of which retailer you choose. The network side is fixed. The rate and the tariff are not.
The process
How does a Termina review work?
Four steps, and nothing changes until you approve it.
Send your latest bills
Electricity, gas or both, as the PDF from the retailer. One site or all of them.
We compare the whole market
Every retailer that will take your business, including the ones that pay brokers nothing.
You approve before anything changes
You see the saving for each site and the rate it will pay, already after our share.
We keep checking
On small business plans we re-check your prices every month and switch you when there’s something cheaper.
Who pays your adviser
How do energy brokers get paid?
Most are paid a commission by the retailer that wins your contract, usually built into the rate you pay. Termina refuses retailer commissions.
A commission-paid broker
Paid by the retailer that wins your contract. The commission usually sits inside your unit rate, so it never shows as a line on your bill.
Termina
No retailer pays us anything. Our only income is a share of the savings we find, and every rate we quote is already after our share.
Questions
What do Adelaide businesses ask?
What does a business energy broker in Adelaide do?
Termina, the commission-free alternative to a broker, reviews your usage, compares SA electricity retailers, negotiates better commercial rates, and ensures your business locks in stable, cost-effective energy contracts backed by data, not guesswork.
Can Termina help my business find the cheapest electricity provider in Adelaide?
Yes. Termina independently compares all major SA retailers to identify which provider offers the best commercial contract for your specific load profile, not just the cheapest headline rate.
Why are electricity prices so high in Adelaide?
South Australia’s heavy reliance on renewable generation, market volatility, and high network charges contribute to some of the highest electricity prices in the country. Termina breaks down these factors and helps businesses secure strategies that minimise their exposure.
How do I know if my Adelaide business is overpaying for electricity?
If your contract is expiring, you’re on a default renewal, your bills fluctuate heavily year-to-year, or demand charges are increasing, you’re likely overpaying. Termina’s electricity comparison SA service pinpoints these inefficiencies clearly.
Do you offer electricity comparison for multi-site businesses in South Australia?
Absolutely. Termina specialises in multi-site and high-usage commercial energy strategies, consolidating accounts, negotiating bulk SA rates, and securing consistent pricing across all business locations.
