Wheeled Energy Calculator
See what wheeled energy could save your business. A free estimator that turns your electricity consumption into an indicative view of your savings, renewable energy share and carbon reduction, modelled on real generation profiles from our vetted supplier network.
The tool
A clear first number, before you speak to anyone
Wheeled energy lets your business buy renewable power from an independent producer and have it delivered across the existing grid to your site. The hard part has always been knowing what it would actually mean for your costs. The Wheeled Energy Calculator answers that in three figures.
Estimated savings
See your indicative saving per kilowatt hour and across a full 20-year contract horizon, measured against your current blended tariff.
Renewable energy share
Understand what portion of your consumption a wheeled deal could cover with clean energy, based on your chosen generation mix.
Carbon reduction
Quantify the emissions your business could avoid each year, useful for ESG reporting, green credits and stakeholder commitments.
How it works
Four steps to your estimate
No spreadsheets, no meetings. The calculator does the modelling that would normally take an analyst days of work.
Tell us about your business
Enter your monthly consumption in kilowatt hours, your supply authority (Eskom, municipal or a combination) and your operation type.
Set your priority
Choose whether you want the lowest cost, the highest renewable share, or a balanced outcome. This shapes the generation mix.
We model it
Your profile is matched to real wind, solar and battery generation curves, with network losses and wheeling fees factored in.
See your results
Get your savings, renewable share and carbon reduction, projected across a 20-year contract, in seconds.
Have your report emailed to you
Once your estimate is generated, we highly recommend having your report emailed to you. If you are happy to find out more, a wheeled energy specialist will be in touch to discuss your business needs and how much you could save.
Why use it
Worth two minutes of your time
The calculator is built for decision-makers who want evidence before a conversation, not a sales pitch first.
A real number, fast
Move from “wheeling might help us” to a defensible estimate you can take to your finance team.
No sales call required
Get your first view privately, on your own terms. Speak to us only when the numbers make sense.
Model before you commit
Test different priorities and see how cost, renewable share and carbon trade off against each other.
Grounded in real capacity
Estimates draw on our network of 1,500+ MW of vetted wind, solar and BESS projects, not generic averages.
See your green impact
Quantify avoided emissions to support ESG targets, renewable energy certificates and compliance.
South African assumptions
Tariffs, network losses and wheeling fees reflect the local market, not imported benchmarks.
