Your current off-peak rate per kWh as on your bill. This is used to calculate the baseline comparison. If you don't have a bill handy then this rate defaults to the nominal off-peak rate (DMO or VDO) for your distributor.

If you export power during the day and can charge then, solar may be your cheapest option. The average daily generation for a 6.6kW solar system in Sydney is 25.7 kWh/day.
Estimates only. Not a formal switching quote. Weekly energy use is your weekly distance divided by an assumed efficiency of 5.5 km/kWh. Each plan's cheap-window capacity is its weekly cheap hours × your charger power; energy that doesn't fit the cheap window is billed at your current rate. Actual costs vary with driving, weather, and charging behaviour. Plans requiring a battery (VPP) and plans with vehicle-specific restrictions may not apply to you.
Below is a list of the latest EV Energy plans across Australia (NSW, VIC, QLD, SA, WA, ACT) including charging rates, charging windows and any special requirements.
