The system’s proven performance in operational testing underscores its potential to serve as a dependable energy solution for remote and industrial applications.
Strength in Engineering Services
Synertec’s engineering division also contributed to the company’s overall success, recording an 11% year-on-year revenue increase, reaching $21.2 million. This growth has been underpinned by long-term contracts with major industrial clients and government utilities, ensuring a stable financial foundation for the group.

The company has strategically targeted resilient industry sectors with strong margins, enabling it to deliver high-quality engineering and technology services across a diverse range of projects.

Synertec made key changes to its leadership team, with Johannes Risseeuw appointed as a non-executive director and chair-elect. Additionally, David Harris transitioned to focus on Powerhouse commercialisation as head of technology solutions, reflecting the company’s emphasis on this growth area.
In a move to support its strategic initiatives, Synertec restructured its capital in FY2024. The company secured a $15 million debt facility and raised $7 million through a share placement. These funds are earmarked for the continued rollout of Powerhouse technology, potential Grid Support applications, and working capital requirements.
Looking ahead, Synertec anticipates further growth opportunities, particularly in deploying its Powerhouse energy solutions. With an increasing need for sustainable baseload power in remote areas, Synertec aims to strengthen its market position and expand its impact in the energy and technology sectors.
