Electricity Market Competition in Melbourne
Since the late 1990s the electricity market in Australia's Eastern and Southern states has been undergoing a process of deregulation. The first stage of deregulation was to establish an intra-state electricity grid that enabled electricity generated in one state to be sold in other states.
The next stage, which occurred sooner in some states than others, was the splitting up of the state owned electricity monopolies into several competing entities and then privatising them. In order to promote a greater amount of competition the energy market was split into two types of entities
The distributors manage the actual delivery of electricity to customers' premises , and they own and manage the poles and powerlines, and don't engage directly with customers.
The electricity retailers sell the electricity to the customers and manage the billing. The states have between 1 and 3 distributors and up to 30 retailers.
The electricity market in Melbourne was fully deregulated in July 2008 . This meant that consumers could now change to the provider that offered the cheapest electricity prices.

Tips for reducing electricity consumption to save on your bills
Here are a few easy to implement ways for reducing your electricity consumption
- A cheap alternative to an electric blanket is a hot water bottle.
- Eliminate draughts. Prevent cold air or hot air getting in or getting out through gaps under doors or around your windows through the use of door snakes and gap seal tape.
- Turn off your appliances at the power point when you're not using them.
- Wear warm clothing, instead of turning on the heater (warm socks, jumper, booties, beanie).
- Use the clothes dryer less frequently. Instead, dry the clothes outside or use an indoor clothes rack.
- Reduce the use of lights by making use of the available natural light.
- Stop the sun from over-heating your home by closing the curtains and blinds in rooms that the hot sun shines directly into.
- Close the doors of rooms that aren't in use, so you just heat or cool a smaller space.
- Use less air conditioning by opening windows at night to allow the house cool down, and shutting them each morning thus keeping hot air out.
