What is the best electricity plan in Victoria?

There’s no one ‘best’ electricity plan in Victoria, as different people have different energy needs. That said, things to consider when comparing plans include: How a plan’s annual estimated cost compares to the reference price. The usage charge per kilowatt hour (kWh) and daily supply charge. Whether those charges are variable or fixed for a specific term. If the plan includes a guaranteed or conditional bill discount. Your tariff type–do you need a single rate or time of use tariff, or do you require a controlled load? If there’s benefits for solar owners, such as a feed-in tariff.

How many electricity providers operate in Victoria?

There are five electricity distribution networks in Victoria and over 20 energy retailers offering residential electricity plans.

Do electricity providers offer the same prices across Victoria?

No. Your energy bill will be different based on your location, as distribution costs vary between networks. This means, the price of an AGL plan on the Citipower network will be different from the price of that same plan on the Powercor network. Victoria is serviced by five electricity distributors: CitiPower: Network covers central Melbourne and inner suburbs. Jemena: Network covers North West Melbourne. Powercor: Network covers Melbourne’s CBD and inner suburbs, Melbourne’s western suburbs, central and western Victoria. AusNet Services: Network covers eastern Victoria as well as the outer northern and eastern suburbs of Melbourne. United Energy: Network covers southern Melbourne and the Mornington Peninsula.
