What feedin tariff can I get for solar on the Gold Coast and how do I compare electricity plans?

A SolarWise Team Answered by

Gold Coast households are generally in the Energex network area, but the feed-in tariff you receive is set by your electricity retailer and chosen plan. Rates can vary, and some plans include export limits, changing rates or higher daily supply and usage charges, so the highest advertised tariff may not produce the lowest overall bill. Compare the tariff with your likely solar exports, household consumption and any battery plans using the Australian Government’s Energy Made Easy website. Confirm the current rates, conditions and suitability directly with the retailer before switching.
