Guide About Queensland Electricity and Energy Plans
How does Move-In Connect compare electricity providers QLD?
South-East Queensland is a deregulated energy market. This means that customers are free to compare and switch their providers to find a deal that saves them money. But with over 30 retailers competing to power your home, this can be a bit more time-consuming than it sounds.

When you call Move-In Connect, we will take the overwhelm out of comparing plans. One of our experts will talk to you about the unique energy requirements of your home or business to find you the best electricity provider QLD to match your needs.
Rates
Rates are advertised 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 is a great first step to finding QLD cheapest electricity, but make sure it’s not the only thing you consider.When you call Move-In Connect, we will take the overwhelm out of comparing plans. One of our experts will talk to you about the unique energy requirements of your home or business to find you the best electricity provider QLD to match your needs.
To compare energy deals we will ask about:
- Your location
- Household size
- How many people live in your home
- Type of appliances you use
- Any special energy needs such as a swimming pool or electric vehicle
- If you have solar panels
With these factors in mind, our comprehensive comparison service will look at the following features from our preferred suppliers:
Tariffs
The amount you pay on your bill is determined by your tariff. There are two types of tariff that you will pay.
Supply charge
This is a fixed daily charge from the distributor for the cost of supplying energy to your home. In South-East Queensland the distributor is Ergon 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. Finding a tariff suitable for your home’s needs can save you a lot of money.
- Time-of-use tariff (ToU) tariff – cheaper rates for off-peak and shoulder hours
- Fixed rate tariff – same rate at all times of the day and night
- Controlled load tariff – discounted rates for specific separately metered appliances
- Solar feed-in tariffs – the rate paid to you for excess power from your solar panels
