ABOUT US
We are a low-carbon solutions provider, focused on sustainability and action.
Eco Geek is a brand and service operated by energy specialists Thundergrid.
We help homes, businesses and facilities move away from fossil fuels so that they can become climate leaders, and ensure a smarter, cleaner and thriving world for all.
Unlike traditional consulting services, we pride ourselves on providing simple, actionable steps and solutions for fast results.
We want to save you energy, time, money, AND get things done. To do this, we offer a mix of both commercial consulting and advice, plus a selection of energy saving products and tools that we firmly believe in.
We are energy experts, put on this world to help find solutions to environmental problems...
WHY?
We believe climate change is a major threat to humanity. From a business and individual perspective, energy costs continue to rise. There is growing pressure to reduce our emission profile and environmental footprints on a national – and global – level. New Zealand has committed to achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050. How are you and your business tracking to reach this goal?
The challenge might seem too big but the costs – financial and environmental – are going to amplify the longer we wait.
There is much to be done. We know it can be hard to find simple to digest information, from a source you can trust. Often you’ll get a great energy audit or report, and you’re left alone to find service providers and solutions. It’s hard to know where to focus your energy and dollars for maximum impact.
That's where we can help.
WHAT WE DO
We are creative, active thinkers with expertise in the following areas:
Energy consulting: We’re not interested in being ‘just another energy consultant’ engaged to do just another job. We partner with our clients to provide practical step-by-step actions to deliver low carbon solutions and energy savings.
Electric vehicle charging infrastructure: We source and project manage the supply and installation of simple low cost AC chargers across homes and businesses in NZ to support the uptake of battery powered vehicles.
Energy efficient heating & cooling: Heating homes and facilities can contribute widely to the CO2 profile of the country. Improving heating and cooling systems is core to the expertise we provide.
Peak Demand Management: Reducing energy demand during peak periods is one of our focus areas. We aim to help larger energy users reduce energy peak consumption and make cost savings, while smoothing the demand on the local grid – reducing the need for gas or coal generation. We work with building management systems to reduce demand from non-essential equipment.
Energy Efficient Product Buying Groups: Choosing energy efficient alternatives can be hard for facility managers as capital costs can often be higher than other standard options. We drive down the costs of smarter tech by grouping buyers together to purchase products directly.
