What is the average electricity price in Brisbane and how can I compare cheaper plans?

A WattWise Team Answered by

Brisbane electricity prices vary by retailer, plan, tariff, daily supply charge and household usage, so there is no single rate for everyone. Homes in south-east Queensland are generally covered by the Australian Energy Regulator’s Default Market Offer, which provides a reference price for comparing plans. Check the cents-per-kilowatt-hour rate, supply charge, discounts and estimated annual cost rather than focusing on one advertised rate. Energy Made Easy is the Australian Government’s free comparison service, while your latest bill can help you compare estimates with your actual usage.
