Embedded Networks: Save More, Simplify Utility Bill Management

If you’ve managed energy across multiple tenanted properties - like apartment blocks, shopping centres, caravan parks, or retirement villages - you’ve probably encountered the complexities of embedded networks.

‍

But what if managing them didn’t have to be so difficult - or so expensive?

‍

With Termina, you can cut through the confusion, consolidate your energy data, and reduce admin by having all of your invoices, pricing, contracts and usage in one place. What is an Embedded Network?

An embedded network is a private electricity arrangement within a multi-tenanted site. 

‍

Instead of each occupant dealing directly with an electricity retailer, a central provider purchases electricity in bulk and resells it to tenants.

‍

You’ll find embedded networks in places like:

‍

• Commercial and retail precincts
  
  
• Shopping centres

• Apartment buildings
  
  
• Retirement communities
  
  
• Caravan and holiday parks
  
  

These setups can simplify energy supply logistics. However, they also come with drawbacks: complex bills, limited competition, and higher-than-market rates for tenants.

How Termina’s Platform Help Consolidate Embedded Network Accounts

‍

If you're juggling spreadsheets, PDFs, and portals for multiple accounts, it’s time for an upgrade.

‍

Termina automatically takes data from all energy sources including electricity, gas, LPG, and embedded networks. We then consolidate it into one dashboard to access invoices, manage usage and report emissions. 

‍

Even if your embedded network bills include rent or other outgoings, we separate and categorise the energy data for reporting.

‍

That means:

‍

• No more manual processing
  
  
• One-click exports for sustainability and ROI reporting
  
  
• Data-backed leverage when negotiating with providers
  
  

You’ll have everything in one place and a clearer picture of what you’re really paying.

Account Management for Embedded Networks

Our system is designed to make the process as smooth as possible.

‍

We start by using our technology to identify whether you’re paying above market rates. If you are, we’ll:

‍

1. Help you negotiate with your embedded network provider to secure a better deal based on our market intelligence.
   
   
2. If negotiation doesn’t work, we’ll help calculate the cost-benefit of exiting.
   
   

Our team will guide you through the transition if exiting is the best option. This ensures you don’t overpay while keeping everything compliant and transparent.

‍

Simplify Embedded Networks

Whether you're stuck in a legacy arrangement or just want to get better control over your energy costs, Termina puts you back in the driver’s seat. 

‍

From benchmarking and negotiation to full account consolidation, we handle the heavy lifting. So you can get back to managing your property, not its energy bills.

‍

Managing embedded networks doesn’t have to be complex or costly. 

‍

Termina helps you benchmark rates, consolidate all your accounts in one place, and even exit embedded networks when needed.
