How the estimate is worked out
- Daily supply charge for 365 days$422.09
- Shoulder usage, 4,000 kWh (100%)$1,446.37
Assumptions:
- Time-of-use split: 100% 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.
Solar
This plan pays a retailer feed-in tariff of 1c/kWh for energy you export.
