Controlled load import costs

A controlled load is a seperate circuit connected to your house, usually used to heat water or run a pool pump. Controlled loads are usually charged at a different rate to your main electricity supply. Some retailers charge a seperate daily fee to have a controlled load connected to your house. While historically controlled loads could be used to take advantage of surplus power in the grid overnight, they may not be as cost effective (or convenient) as they once were due to the abundance of midday solar power.

Controlled Load One

Daily supply charge 0.00c

Unit price: 0.11c (inc GST) per kWh.

Applies on: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from 01:00am to 01:00am
