*Compare & Connect does not compare all plans in the market.Electricity Market Competition in NSW
Australia's electricity market has been undergoing a gradual process of deregulation since the late 1990s. The first step of deregulation was the establishing of a national electricity network {{citymarketintro4}} in one state to be delivered to a different state.
Another stage, which occurred sooner in some states than others, was the breaking up of state owned electricity monopolies into competing entities and then privatising them. In an attempt to stimulate a greater level of competition the market was separated into two types of entities
- Energy Distributors
The distributors manage the physical delivery of electricity to the customers' premises . They own and maintain the poles and powerlines, and don't engage directly with customers. - Energy Retailers Retailers sell the electricity to the customers and manage the billing. States have between one and three distributors, and up to 30 retailers.
On 1 July 2014 , the market in NSW was completely deregulated. This meant that customers could, for the first time, change to another provider that had cheaper electricity prices.
Electricity in NSW is supplied by the following distributors
- Endeavour Energy
Endeavour Energy's network provides 2.4 million people with electricity in homes and businesses located in the Southern Highlands, Blue Mountains and Sydney's Greater West. - Essential Energy
Essential Energy supplies electricity regional and country NSW, and throughout southern regional QLD. - Ausgrid
Ausgrid distributes electricity throughout eastern, northern and inner metropolitan Sydney and in the Hunter region and Newcastle.
Tips for reducing your electricity usage to save on your bills
Here are a few easily implemented ways for reducing household expenditure on electricity
- Don't use the clothes dryer as often. Hang clothes to dry outside or alternatively, use an indoor clothing rack.
- A cheap alternative to an electric blanket is a hot water bottle.
- Dress for cold weather, rather than turn on the heater, (booties, beanie, jumper, warm socks).
- Turn off your appliances at the power socket when they're not in use.
- Eliminate draughts. Stop cold air or hot air blowing in or leaving through gaps under doors and around your windows by using gap seal tape and door snakes.
- Close the doors to areas of your home that aren't in use, so you just cool or heat a smaller area.
- Stop the sun from over-heating rooms by closing the blinds and curtains in the rooms that the hot sun shines directly into.
- Reduce your use of lights through the use of as much natural light as possible.
- Minimise air conditioning usage by opening your windows during the night to let the house cool down, and then closing them each morning thus keeping the hot air out.
