Once we know all about how you use energy in your home, we can thoroughly compare the plans available from our panel of preferred suppliers. We will look at the rates on offer, tariffs, special offers, green options and fees. Each of these is discussed below.
The first thing to look at is the NSW electricity prices per kWh. Energy retailers are required to advertise their rates as a percentage discount from the Default Market Offer (DMO). The DMO is the reference price set by the government to ensure affordable power for everyone. Finding a retailer with a low rate per kWh is a great first step to finding a cheap energy plan, but it’s not the only thing you need to consider.
The tariff in your chosen plan will determine the rate you pay for energy at different times of the day, or for different appliances. Choosing the right tariff to match your energy usage habits can make a huge difference to your total bill. There are two parts to your tariff.
Supply charge
This is a fixed daily charge from the distributor for the cost of supplying energy to your home. There are three distributors in NSW – Ausgrid, Endeavour and Essential Energy. They will pass on their charge to your retailer, who will in turn pass it on to you.
Usage charge
This is a variable charge based on how much energy you use. It is charged as cents per kilowatt-hour (c/kWh), based on the rate you are eligible for in your plan.
Some tariffs give you access to different rates for different times of day or appliances. The trick to finding the best electricity plans NSW is finding a tariff suitable for your home’s needs. The most common tariffs include:
With so many retailers to choose from, you will find plenty of special offers available designed to win you over. To find the best electricity deals NSW, you need to look at how much you will spend over the life of your contract, not just during the discounted introductory period.
You can also find good deals with retailers by bundling your services with them.
Some money-saving offers to look out for include:
Australia’s energy companies take their environmental impact very seriously, and are working with the government towards a cleaner future. If you want to do your part, talk to a Move-In Connect expert about offsetting your carbon footprint with a carbon-neutral plan.

Sometimes things can be too good to be true, and energy plans are no exception. The cheapest electricity provider NSW might be hiding some fees and charges that will leave you with a hefty bill.
Move-In Connect’s panel of preferred suppliers feature honest, transparent plans and our experts will talk you through each of the fees before you sign up so there are no unpleasant surprises.
Some common fees to look out for include:
The federal and New South Wales state governments have several energy rebates and concessions to help eligible customers with their energy bills. These are applied in addition to any discounted rates or offers you receive from your retailer.
Some of the energy rebates and concessions in NSW include:
