Start with the Australian Government’s Energy Made Easy website, where you can enter your postcode and compare available electricity or gas plans in your area. Have a recent bill handy so you can use your actual usage, supply address and tariff details rather than relying on typical estimates. Check the daily supply charge, usage rates, discounts, contract terms, exit fees and any solar feed-in tariff, as the cheapest advertised plan may not suit every household. Your final price and eligibility depend on the retailer’s assessment and your circumstances, so confirm the offer directly before switching.
