According to data from IPART, the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal, New South Wales residents have seen a 64% increase in electricity prices. The reason behind this cost increase is due to rising prices needed to maintain the Federal Governments’ Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme and energy networks throughout the state.
Within the next three years, homeowners and business owners in New South Wales can expect to see more electricity price increases ranging from 46% to 64%, depending on where they live and who currently supplies their electricity. The Carbon Pollution Production Scheme from the Federal Government is responsible for at least 40% of the 56% increase in electricity prices in New South Wales.
In 2013, a business owner may see electricity prices rise by $3000. Residential customers in New South Wales could expect the following price increases from electricity distributors:
- Energy Australia – 60% increase of $2421
- Integral Energy – 46% increase of $1660
- Country Energy – 64% increase of $3070
