History
Established in April 2006, Click Energy secured its electricity licence by June of the same year and initiated customer transfers in Victoria starting January 2007. The company extended its operations to Queensland in March 2007 and further expanded into New South Wales by March 2013.
In July 2012, Click Energy became part of Nu Energy following an acquisition. In April 2013, the company formed a partnership with US-based energy technology firm Stem to advance energy storage solutions. Later that year, it joined forces with the consumer advocacy group One Big Switch to provide discounted electricity rates in Queensland and New South Wales.
Click Energy earned recognition from Canstar, receiving awards for Most Satisfied Customers Electricity Providers in Queensland (2015) and Value For Money Electricity Providers in Queensland (2015–2016). In October 2017, Amaysim purchased Click Energy for $120 million. That same year, the company was honored with the ProductReview.com.au services award.
In September 2020, AGL Energy reached an agreement to acquire Click Energy from Amaysim for $115 million. By March 2021, the Australian Energy Regulator approved the surrender of Click Energy’s licence, facilitating the transfer of its over 200,000 customers to AGL.
