Australia's electricity market has been undergoing a process of deregulation which began in the late 1990s. The first stage of deregulation involved establishing a national grid {{citymarketintro4}} in one state to be sold in another state.
Another stage, which occurred earlier in some states, was the breaking up of the state owned electricity monopolies into multiple competing entities, then privatising them. In an attempt to stimulate a greater amount of competition the energy market was divided into two levels
- Energy Distributors
Distributors are responsible for the physical delivery of electricity to the customers' premises , and they own and manage the poles and powerlines, but do not deal directly with customers. - Energy Retailers Retailers have all the interactions with the customer. They sell the electricity and are responsible for billing. The states have between 1 and 3 distributors but up to thirty retailers.
On 1 July 2014 , the NSW market was completely deregulated. This enabled consumers to switch to whichever provider had cheaper prices.
Electricity in NSW is supplied by the following three distributors
- Ausgrid
Ausgrid supplies electricity throughout northern, eastern and inner metropolitan Sydney and north to Newcastle and the Hunter region. - Endeavour Energy
Endeavour Energy provides electricity to 2.4 million people in homes and businesses across the Blue Mountains, Sydney's Greater West and the Southern Highlands. - Essential Energy
Essential Energy supplies electricity regional and country NSW, as well as throughout southern regional QLD.
Lower your power bills with these electricity -saving tips
Here are some easily implemented tips to reduce your electricity consumption
- A cheap alternative to an electric blanket is a hot water bottle.
- Minimise usage of the clothes dryer. Dry the clothes outside or alternatively, use an indoor clothing rack.
- Eliminate draughts. Prevent cold air or hot air blowing in or leaving via gaps under doors and around windows through the use of door snakes and gap seal tape.
- Instead of turning on the heater, wear clothing that's appropriate for cold weather (jumper, booties, beanie, warm socks).
- Turn all appliances off at the power socket when they're not in use.
- Close doors of rooms that you don't use, so that you only have to heat or cool a smaller area.
- Minimise air conditioning usage by opening the windows at night to allow the cool air in, then shutting them in the morning to keep hot air out.
- Reduce the use of lights. Rely on natural light if possible.
- Prevent the sun over-heating rooms by closing the curtains and blinds in rooms where the sun shines in.
