What affects the electricity price in Sydney and how can I compare plans?

A WattWise Team Answered by

The electricity price in Sydney depends on your retailer, tariff type, daily supply charge, usage and whether you have solar or a controlled load. Prices can also vary between postcodes and change when retailers update their offers, so a plan that suits one household may not suit another. Compare current NSW offers using the Australian Energy Regulator’s Energy Made Easy website, which uses your usage details where available. Check the estimated annual cost, rates, contract conditions and any discounts before switching.
