Aurora Energy is a government-owned electricity retailer in Tasmania, who is all for community and sustainability.
Aurora Energy is only available to households and businesses in Tasmania.
Customers are able to choose between different electricity packages offered by Aurora Energy. These packs have been designed to suit the varying needs between customers and services they require.
For example, with the Aurora+ package, customers have a choice between receiving a flat rate or peak and off-peak rates. With this package, customers will also be able to keep an eye on their electricity usage throughout the day, thanks to the Aurora+ app. A Residential Flat Rate package is also available for households who prefer to not be actively involved with their electricity usage.
Similar to the Aurora+ package, the Residential Peak and Off-Peak product delivers pricing depending on the electricity demand. Prices are slightly higher and lower in off-peak periods. According to the retailer, this product is best suited to households with solar panels and battery storage, as they are able to store any excess solar electricity to be used during peak hours.
Finally, the Aurora Green package allows households to contribute toward supporting a sustainable future by having their electricity supplied by a renewable source. Customers have great flexibility when deciding on the percentage of green power supplied, ranging from 10% to 100%.

We only have one provider in our entire state but thankfully they do a great job. When and if we have lost power they have fixed it right away. Very rarely do we have a power loss which is wonderful, even in peak summer. Pricing is expensive...
We only have one provider in our entire state but thankfully they do a great job. When and if we have lost power they have fixed it right away. Very rarely do we have a power loss which is wonderful, even in peak summer. Pricing is expensive however but all of them are. The couple of times we have called for various reasons they have been exceptionally polite, helpful and give a quick resolution. All in all, a good company.

I like Aurora as most of our power is from our hydro dams, sent to us at a fairly reasonable rate and most of the time very reliable.
