In the late 1980s, a small team at UNSW quietly broke the world record for solar cell efficiency — a milestone that put Australia on the global map for renewable innovation. It wasn’t achieved by one genius, but by researchers, engineers, and industry partners pulling in the same direction. That same spirit of collaboration continues to shape Australia’s energy story today. Our unique conditions combined with vision, persistence, and the right partners to bridge the gap between concept and reality.

At Sorensen, we’ve had the privilege of working alongside some of Australia’s most forward-thinking energy organisations — from student teams pushing the limits of solar mobility, to pioneering companies redefining the efficiency of hydrogen electrolysis, to product design specialists shaping the future of renewable technologies.

Our role is to provide the precision engineering, local manufacturing, and problem-solving expertise that help turn promising ideas into reliable products capable of changing the world. We are looking to partner with more companies in the energy, renewables and green technology space to scale the impact of Australian innovation and manufacturing for a brighter future.
