A Future-Ready Platform for Australia's Trade Businesses.

Rena Group is building an evergreen platform for established electrical, HVAC and plumbing businesses in NSW and the ACT, preserving the people and reputation you built, and adding the scale, capital and technology to take them further.

I Own a Business

An Evergreen Home Base for Great SMEs

Rena Group is an evergreen platform: a long-term hub where established businesses keep their identity and gain the scale, capital and support to grow.

  • Evergreen Ownership: built to hold and grow businesses for the long term.

  • Your Brand: kept wherever it's what your customers know and trust.

  • Your People: retained and developed. They're the reason we invest.

  • A Shared Hub: group capital, expertise and support that one SME couldn't build alone.

  • Your Role: step back on your timeline, or stay and lead with the group behind you.

Keep What Works. Strengthen the Rest. Connect It All.

Our model is simple: local electrical, HVAC and plumbing businesses join one group, keep their strengths, and together win work none of them could win alone.

  • Preserve What Works: the people, culture, customer relationships, reputation and know-how the founder has built.

  • Strengthen the Foundations: capital, governance, financial management, WHS and compliance, technology, reporting, sales and tendering.

  • Connect Into Something Bigger: electrical, HVAC and plumbing teams cross-selling, sharing a back office and winning larger commercial, government and institutional contracts.

AI Runs on Power, Cooling and Pipework. That's Our Trade.

Every AI model runs in a data centre, and every data centre depends on electricians, HVAC technicians and plumbers to power it, cool it and keep it running. AEMO forecasts data centre electricity use in the NEM to grow from about 5 TWh in FY2026 to about 15 TWh by 2029-30 and about 34 TWh by 2035-36 (2026 ESOO, Step Change scenario).

  • Power (Electrical): switchboards, backup power, UPS systems and the connections that keep critical facilities running.

  • Cooling (HVAC and Plumbing): AI chips run hot. Precision air conditioning and liquid cooling rely on chillers, pumps and pipework.

  • Uptime (Maintenance): critical sites run 24/7, so they need planned maintenance, compliance testing and fast response.

Technology Handles the Paperwork. Your People Do the Work.

Businesses in the group share support and resources, so their tradespeople can spend more time on site and less time on admin.

  • Shared Back Office: finance, payroll, HR, WHS and compliance handled centrally.

  • Better Tools: investment in practical, modern tools and systems over time.

  • Growth Engine: sales, tendering and cross-selling across trades to win bigger, longer contracts.

  • Future-Ready: a long-term ambition to use AI and automation to make essential services safer and more productive.

Rising Demand Meets a Succession Wave

Electrification and AI data centres are lifting demand for electrical, HVAC and plumbing work, while many of the founders who built these businesses are planning their exit.

  • 48% of Australian Baby Boomer SME owners plan to exit their business within the next five years.

  • 24% of Australian SME owners have a succession plan for their exit.
