How the estimate is worked out
  • Daily supply charge for 365 days$627.79
  • Off-peak usage, 1,400 kWh (35%)$492.34
  • Peak usage, 1,600 kWh (40%)$940.54
  • Shoulder usage, 1,000 kWh (25%)$165.00

Assumptions:

  • Time-of-use split: 35% off-peak, 40% peak, 25% shoulder wherever the plan has those windows. Change the split if you know your own pattern.
  • Usage of 4,000 kWh a year, a reference figure used to compare plans on equal terms.
  • Usage is spread evenly across the year and across each season.
  • All prices include GST. Feed-in credits do not attract GST.

Limitations:

  • This is an estimate. Your actual bill depends on when and how much energy you use, future price changes and whether you meet the plan's eligibility rules.
  • This plan also has Shoulder 2 rate windows. We assumed none of your usage falls in them.

Calculation version 1.0.0.
