Compare Feed-In-Tariffs and Usage Costs by Electricity Retailer

UPDATE: This tool is currently offline for maintenance. We hope to have it available again soon, but in the meantime you may wish to try Energy Made Easy (comparison service for households and small businesses in NSW, QLD, SA, Tas and the ACT), or Victorian Energy Compare.

Instantly see which energy retailers would provide the cheapest bills over 12 months for a typical solar power system owner in your postcode.

The best electricity plan for solar owners has a balance of high feed-in-tariffs, low usage tariffs and low daily charges. This comparison tool compares the current plans of all the retailers we know of who serve your postcode.

For a more definitive comparison, use 12 months' worth of electricity bills and you can enter how many kilowatt-hours you exported and how many kWh you imported - you’ll see exactly which offers would be cheapest based on your energy usage patterns.

Electricity Retailer Comparison (beta)

(Last updated on Sunday 22nd, May 2022)

Accuracy Of Comparison

For a comparison based on your exact usage, you’ll need 12 months of electricity bills (or consumption monitoring data).

 

Why Your Postcode Matters

We need to know your postcode so we only display plans for electricity retailers that serve your area.

 

Why We Ask Solar System Size

The size of your solar power system determines how much energy you generate and how much electricity you are likely to both export for a feed-in tariff and self-consume.

 

Sort Electricity Plans How You Wish

Click on a column heading; e.g. "feed-in tariff", to sort by that value.

 

Change Usage Patterns To See Effect On Plan Costs

The self consumption slider determines how many solar kWh are used in your home, the rest will be exported and receive a feed-in tariff.

The energy your home uses per day (self-consumed solar electricity plus grid usage) determines how much energy you’ll need to buy from the grid.

The advanced version is coming soon, please bear with us.

Please note: this tool is a beta version that shows standard tariff plans and Time of use (ToU) electricity plans for solar owners. Although we try really hard to get accurate data, we can’t guarantee all the values in the table are correct. Use this tool as a starting point only and verify all the charges and feed in tariffs before switching retailers. Please also read this guide before switching. If you find any errors please let us know.
