How much do you pay for electricity every year? $1,200? $1,500? More?

It’s true, power is an unavoidable cost, but that doesn't mean households should be paying more than they need to. In fact, households could save hundreds of dollars a year by switching to a better value deal. 

That’s where the 2020 Mozo Experts Choice Awards for Energy can help, because every year our expert judges crunch the numbers so you don’t have to. 

“Not everyone enjoys sitting down with a spreadsheet trying to figure out how much their energy is costing them and which plans may get them a better deal. After all, there are so many retailers and plans out there, so finding the cheapest ones is a massive task,” says Mozo expert judge, Peter Marshall.

“Energy tariffs can also be complicated and there a number of factors that need to be considered, so for the Mozo Experts Choice Awards we do all those calculations in order to  identify the plans that would be the cheapest for the majority of people.” 

So the big question is, are you looking to switch to a cheaper electricity plan? Get started by comparing Australia’s best value energy plans of 2020 below.
