Welcome to the little electric company with a big heart

We want to eliminate energy hardship and lower household carbon emissions in Wellington, Hutt Valley, Porirua, Kāpiti and Horowhenua.

All our profits go back into the community, providing support for low-income households that are making the tough choice between heating and eating.

For people,
not profit

Not-for-profit

Toast is a not-for-profit electricity supplier. Any profit we make, instead of going to owners and shareholders, is used to reduce the electricity costs for Wellington, Kāpiti and Horowhenua households struggling to afford heating and hot water in winter.

Taking care of things that matter

We’ll take good care of you, protect our precious resources, and create a community where no Wellington, Kāpiti and Horowhenua family has to choose between heating and eating.

Less energy,
more good
