The electricity market in Australia's Eastern and Southern states has been undergoing a deregulation which began in the late 1990s. The first stage of deregulation was the establishing of a national grid {{citymarketintro4}} in one state to be sold in another state.
The next stage, which happened earlier in some states, was the splitting up of the state owned electricity monopolies into competing entities, then privatising them. In an attempt to promote better competition the energy market was separated into two types of entities
- Energy Distributors
Distributors look after the actual delivery of electricity to customers' premises , and they own and manage the poles and powerlines, and do not deal with customers. - Energy Retailers The electricity retailers do all the interacting with the customer. They sell the electricity and are responsible for billing. The states have from 1 to 3 distributors but up to thirty retailers.
South Australia 's electricity market was fully deregulated on 1 July 2013 . This meant that consumers could, for the first time, switch to whichever provider offered the cheapest electricity prices.
Electricity in SA is supplied by one main distributor
- SA Power Networks
SA Power Networks distributes electricity in South Australia - Note, some remote areas of SA are supplied by companies other than SA Power Networks.
Tips to reduce electricity usage to save money
Here is a list of easily implemented ways to reduce your electricity consumption
- A cheap alternative to an electric blanket is a hot water bottle.
- Reduce draughts. Minimise hot or cold air getting in or getting out through the gaps under doors and around your windows through the use of door snakes and gap seal tape.
- Turn appliances off at the power point when you're not using them.
- Reduce usage of your clothes dryer. Instead, dry clothes outside or use an indoor clothes rack.
- Rather than turn on the heater, wear warmer clothing (warm socks, beanie, jumper, booties).
- Reduce the use of lights. Use natural lighting where possible, and replace old lights with more efficient LED lights.
- Close doors of rooms that you aren't using, so that you only cool or heat a smaller space.
- Prevent the hot sun over-heating your home by closing the curtains and blinds in rooms that are exposed to the heat of direct sunlight.
- Use less air conditioning by opening the windows during the night to allow the house cool down, and then shutting them each morning to keep the hot air out.
