This is a generic annual assessment only, and assumes:
Reference usage. Every plan is priced at a reference consumption of 4,000 kWh per year. Your bill shows your real usage, and a different usage can put a different plan on top.
Credits excluded. Signup credits and incentives are excluded, so the ranking reflects ongoing cost.
Specialist plans excluded. Plans requiring solar panels, home batteries, EV chargers, or demand tariffs are excluded as they are not available to most households.

This is a generic annual assessment only, and assumes:
Reference usage. Every plan is priced at a reference consumption of 4,000 kWh per year. Your bill shows your real usage, and a different usage can put a different plan on top.
Default load curve. Consumption is split across tariff periods using a default load curve. If you use more in the evening or overnight, time-of-use plans rank differently.
Credits excluded. Signup credits and incentives are excluded, so the ranking reflects ongoing cost.
Specialist plans excluded. Plans requiring solar panels, home batteries, EV chargers, or demand tariffs are excluded as they are not available to most households.
Your actual time-of-use bill depends on when you use power.
That is the generic ‘best-priced’ plan answer. The actual best-priced plan for you may well be different.
But you’re not average, are you?
There are 38 electricity plans available in Silkwood, Queensland, and only one of them is the best-priced for you.
The generic 'best plan' assumes a reference consumption level, a generic load curve extrapolated annually, excludes incentives and welcome credits, and excludes solar, battery and EV from the ranking.
