SMART ENERGY USE


Check you're on the right electricity price plan
If you are a low-use electricity consumer it may pay to check you're on the right price plan - it could save you money. We have worked with your electricity retailer to assist low-use electricity consumers who use less than 8,000kWh per year, by offering low fixed charge price plans.
 
These plans have a combination of low daily charges and higher variable charges when compared with our standard price plans. This means if you use less than 8,000 kWh per year the low fixed charge plans will be cheaper for you. To check if you're eligible for this plan, visit your retailer's website.
 
Your electricity retailer should inform you at least once a year about how much energy you use, and whether it may be beneficial for you to switch to a low fixed charge plan.
 
If you want to know how much electricity you use or which price plan you are on get in touch with your retailer.

Use less power
Our line charges include a variable component. This means, the less electricity you use, the less you pay. For tips on how to use less electricity and save money on your power bill visit EnergyWise.
