Compare Electricity Companies

Post on June 13th, 2015

How much money can you save by Comparing and Switching your Electricity Company?

The quickest and easiest way to reduce your energy bills and save money is by comparing the deals and prices offered by the different electricity companies that operate in your area. Unfortunately, many consumers don’t compare and switch because they don’t have the time to research deals or they find the whole electricity industry to be too confusing.

The ACCC’s 2017 Retail Electricity Pricing Inquiry found that most consumers found it difficult to compare offers because of inconsistent terminology and confusing discounting structures. The report found that many consumers rated their experience with their current electricity company as ‘satisfactory’ simply because they were unaware of their options or better offers available from competitors.

It’s no wonder that over 1 Million Australians have used Electricity Wizard to compare electricity companies and find the best deal.

If you’re frustrated by the rising cost of electricity in your area, it’s time to do something about it. Residential and business customers can help keep the retail cost of electricity as low as possible by increasing the pressure on retailers to offer more competitive rates and plans.

The benefits of comparing electricity companies in Australia

When it comes to electricity usage, there are a few basic factors that are beyond the control of retail consumers. In each state and territory in Australia, the energy industry is made up of companies who generate electricity, the transmission network, wholesale distributors, and retail electricity companies who sell energy to homes and businesses.

Australia's Electricity Supply

Residential and business electricity usage is measured in kilowatt hours by the retail electricity supplier. This usage is then charged according to either fixed tariff rates or time of usage rates. The units of electricity that you use are multiplied by the unit price for the specific time that the electricity was consumed.

Each electricity company has their own unique pricing structure. This means consumers have the power to choose an electricity company who offers a pricing and plan structure that suits their needs.

When you compare and switch electricity providers, you have the opportunity to find a cheaper rate that could save you hundreds of dollars per year. But an Electricity Wizard comparison can do more than just compare prices. We can help you switch to an electricity company who offers the customer service benefits that you want from your energy retailer.

Choosing an Electricity Provider

With the increasing number of energy companies now operating in Australia, the market can be confusing. Electricity Wizard can help you to compare a whole range of big and small players in the retail industry including:

Energy experts recommend that residential users compare gas and electricity rates every 12 to 24 months to stay on top of a competitive market. This gives you the opportunity to regularly find out who’s the cheapest electricity company in Australia, and make the most of any new technology that may have become available.

But always remember: a comparison is just a comparison. You’re just looking around. You shouldn’t feel pressured to be locked in to any new contracts, or feel obligated to sign up with a company when making a comparison.

Electricity Wizard’s free comparison service comes with no obligation or contracts whatsoever. You can either switch to one of the companies offering better rates or plans, or stay with your current provider. If you do switch, and decide you’re not happy with your new company, you’ll love our Exit Fee Protection! We’ll switch you to a different company at absolutely no cost to make sure you love your new energy provider.
