Thermal Dawn

Start-Up

Heating and cooling is expensive. Australian households spend over $1,400 a year just to stay comfortable, and as more homes install air conditioners, the pressure on the electricity grid keeps growing. Thermal Dawn makes heating and cooling cheaper. Their system uses solar power or cheaper off-peak electricity and can run heating and cooling at up to 10× lower cost than traditional batteries. This helps families save money while also reducing strain on the grid during peak times. Founded by Nick and Linda Zeniou, who bring over a decade of experience designing heating systems, building smart controls, and manufacturing reliable consumer hardware. They’re building in Australia with a clear goal: make comfortable homes affordable for families everywhere, and help transition energy systems toward renewables.
