Listed below are electricity retailer’s daily supply charges for households in ACT, NSW, NT, QLD, SA, TAS, VIC and WA.
What are Daily supply charges? Daily supply charges are the amount you pay to be connected to the electricity grid. Also called the ‘service to property’ charge, fixed charge or service charge, they are usually shown on your bill as a daily rate. Daily supply charges are not based on how much energy you use.
Electricity daily supply charges vary depending on three things;
1. The electricity network region you are connected to. There are 15 major electricity networks in Australia.
2. What type of tariff you are on. This includes flat/anytime or time of use.
3. The electricity retailer who you buy power through.
Want to find the best electricity deal for you? A low daily supply charge is important, but you also need to weigh up the usage rates (and feed-in tariffs if you have solar). After all, you want the cheapest bill – not bragging rights on a low supply cost.
