The Australian electricity market has been gradually deregulating since the late 1990s. The first step of deregulation involved establishing a national grid {{citymarketintro4}} in one state to be delivered in another state.
Another stage, which occurred earlier in some states than others, was the breaking up of state owned electricity monopolies into multiple competing entities, then privatising them. In an attempt to produce more competition the market was divided into two levels
- Energy
Distributors
The distributors are responsible for the physical delivery of electricity to the customers' premises , and they own and maintain the poles and powerlines, but do not deal directly with customers. - Energy Retailers Retailers are the ones who sell the electricity to the customers and manage the billing. States have between 1 and 3 distributors but up to thirty retailers.
On 1 July 2016 , South East Queensland 's energy market was fully deregulated. This enabled customers to switch to the provider that had cheaper electricity prices.
Two distributors supply electricity to Queensland
- Energex
Energex supplies electricity to premises in a region covering around 25,000 square kilometres in South East Queensland, which stretches from the NSW border in the south to Gympie in the north. This covers the major population areas of Brisbane, Logan, the Gold and Sunshine Coasts, Ipswich, Redlands and Moreton Bay. - Ergon Energy
Ergon Energy distributes electricity to Queensland including coastal and rural areas as well as the remote communities of outback Queensland and the Torres Strait.
Reduce your power bills with these energy -saving tips
Here is a list of easy to implement tips to reduce your expenditure on energy
- Minimise use of the clothes dryer. Hang your clothes to dry outside or alternatively, use an indoor clothing rack.
- A cheap alternative to an electric blanket is a hot water bottle.
- Turn off all appliances at the power socket when they're not in use.
- Eliminate draughts. Minimise cold air or hot air entering or escaping through the gaps under doors or around windows by using gap seal tape and door snakes.
- Instead of turning on the heater, wear clothing that is appropriate for the weather (beanie, booties, warm socks, jumper).
- Prevent the sun from over-heating rooms by closing the blinds and curtains in rooms where the sun shines in.
- Reduce your use of lights. Rely on natural light if possible, and replace old lights with LED lights.
- Minimise air conditioning usage by opening your windows in the evening allow the cooler air in, then closing them in the morning to keep the hot air out.
- Close the doors of rooms that you don't use, so you only cool or heat a smaller area.
