Electricity retailers in Melbourne offer financial incentives to secure new deals. But first, take advantage of the GoSwitch search engine to focus on your preferred deals. During the switch, you can ask your GoSwitch consultant questions, such as:

• • Does my current electricity supplier offer incentives?
  • What incentives do other electricity suppliers offer?
  • What conditions are attached?
  • Are the incentives for the lifetime of the contract?
  • What happens to the contract when incentives expire?
  • Can I combine electricity and gas?
  • Which plans offer greater flexibility?
  • Am I eligible for energy rebates?
  • Are there solar feed-in tariffs and green power plans available?

The electricity rates (tariffs) you pay are a combination of daily supply charges from regional distribution networks and usage charges from companies such as Energy Australia, Dodo, and AGL. Tariff types include:

• Single rate tariffs where the kW/h rate remains the same 24/7
• Time-of-use tariffs (peak, shoulder, off-peak)
• Controlled load tariffs for stand-alone appliances such as a hot water cylinder

GoSwitch finds attractive Melbourne electricity usage rates below the reference price.

The energy market in Melbourne is a competitive marketplace for electricity retailers. Alternatively, you can choose the market offer, also known as the Victorian default offer (VDO), overseen by the Australian Energy Regulator. Prior to making the switch to a better deal, it’s worth understanding a little more about energy bills. Here are a few things to look for.

• Contract term: Lock-in or no lock-in contracts
• Cooling off period: A 10-day window for a full refund if you change your mind
• Eligibility: Find out if natural gas is available for your home or business
• Terms and conditions: The fine print for individual plans and bundle deals
• Contract expiry: Exit fees or no exit fees
• Incentives: Lots to explore, including direct debit pay-on-time discounts
• Updates: Keep in touch for updates and special deals

Guaranteed discounts that apply for part (or all) of the electricity deal contract term, such as renewable energy rebates for setting up a solar system.

Choosing the right provider, retailer and electricity plan can significantly lower your energy costs. GoSwitch does the comparison for you in a few simple steps, totally free of charge.
