Compare energy plans

How do I find the cheapest electricity and gas plans in my state?

Comparing your energy plan options at least once a year is the best way to make sure you're on a competitively-priced electricity and gas plan.
There are a few factors to consider when comparing the cheapest energy plans in your state:

Fixed vs variable. Often variable rate plans may be cheaper but your provider can change the rate (with notice) at any time. Fixed-rate plans are usually more expensive but they do lock in your rates for around 12 months. During times when wholesale electricity prices are volatile, a fixed-rate energy plan can be better by shielding you from price hikes, making it cheaper in the long run. However, keep in mind they're disappearing fast.
Discounts and other bonuses. Bigger providers may offer sign-up credits, bundling with phone and internet plans and other perks. This might make a plan cheaper at first but might not be so great down the track, especially if you're not someone who compares and switches plans regularly.
Hidden fees. Providers may charge to read your energy meter or some might charge a hefty disconnection fee compared to others. Look for this when comparing plans so you don't get stung.

Ready to switch but not sure how? Read our guide to see how simple switching energy providers can be.

Is it cheaper to bundle electricity and gas?

There's no requirement to choose the same provider for both fuel types other than the fact that it's convenient. In fact, it's a bit of a myth that it's cheaper to bundle your gas and electricity plans.

There's no guarantee the provider with the cheapest electricity plan in your state also has the cheapest gas plan (although it is possible).

The same rules apply with offers to bundle your energy plan with a phone or internet deal. You might save $10 a month but there might be an internet plan with another provider for $30 less a month.

Make sure you always compare your options before signing up.

Is it cheaper to pay for energy monthly or quarterly?

Generally, energy bills are charged quarterly, but some providers offer monthly billing or "bill smoothing".

Opting for bill smoothing will allow your provider to estimate your quarterly bill and split it into a monthly payment. You pay the same amount each month regardless of how much energy you use.

Keep in mind: Bill smoothing may not be the best option for you if your energy usage for the month or quarter ends up being less than the provider's estimated monthly cost for you.

Each provider offers different ways of paying your gas and/or electricity bill. A few common ways to pay include a direct debit from your bank account, a credit card or BPAY. You can pay online or at the post office. Debit and credit card payments may charge a fee, which makes a direct debit or BPAY a good option for paying.

What do I do if I can't pay my energy bill?

Some providers might offer personalised instalment plans that suit your unique circumstances.

Depending on the specific provider, you may have the option to do the following:

Delay payment of a bill, which will give you more time to pay.
Pay smaller amounts more frequently (including weekly and fortnightly).
Pay in advance when you have the cash.

In more serious situations, such as the loss of a job, serious illness or a death in the family, your provider may be able to offer more personalised financial hardship assistance. In this case, it's best to get in touch with them as soon as possible.

Depending on your circumstances, you may be eligible for rebates and/or concessions from your state government. Read more about rebates available in your state:

Frequently asked questions

Based on energy statistics, gas is generally cheaper than electricity, with the latter around double the cost.
However, when comparing electricity vs gas consider:
- Gas is less efficient to run than electricity.
- The price of gas is on the rise.
- Gas doesn't have as many environmentally-friendly alternatives.
- Many jurisdictions including ACT and VIC are moving to phase out gas use and will stop offering incentives. Eventually, new gas connections will not be allowed.
