Why is my electricity bill in Geelong so high and what help or cheaper options are available?

A WattWise Team Answered by

Electricity bills in Geelong can vary with usage, seasonal heating, the tariff, daily supply charges and the rates set by your retailer. Compare your plan with other offers using the Victorian Energy Compare website, and check whether you qualify for Victorian concessions or your retailer’s payment-difficulty support. If you are having trouble paying, contact your retailer before the account becomes overdue, as they may discuss an affordable payment arrangement. Powercor generally manages the local electricity network, but your retailer handles billing, rates and account support.
