What should I compare when looking for a cheaper energy plan in Newcastle?

A WattWise Team Answered by

For an energy comparison in Newcastle, check plans using your exact postcode and recent electricity usage, as available retailers and prices can vary by network area. Compare the usage rate, daily supply charge, tariff type, discounts, contract terms and any exit fees rather than focusing only on advertised savings. The Australian Government’s Energy Made Easy website lets NSW households compare plans using their bill details and the reference price. Before switching, confirm the offer with the retailer and check whether your current plan includes solar feed-in, controlled-load or gas charges.
