With the backing of AGL, Powerdirect offers both residential and business customers a number of great value electricity deals including renewable energy options.
Powerdirect currently offers electricity plans to households and businesses in New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia and the Australian Capital Territory. If you’re looking for electricity plans in any of these states you may be able to apply with Powerdirect.
Powerdirect makes choosing an electricity plan for your home or business straightforward with two different types of plan - a Standard Retail Contract and a Market Contract. A Standard Retail Contract is governed by the energy market regulator in your specific state, which means the rates and terms of your plan are set by the regulator. On the other hand, the rates and terms offered in the Market Contract are set by Powerdirect itself and are likely to differ from a Standard Contract.
When it comes time to pay your electricity bill you’ll have plenty of convenient options. Powerdirect not only allows customers to pay via direct debit and BPAY, you can also pay with your credit card over the phone or with a cheque in the mail.
Consumers looking for a clean energy option for their home or business will be able to choose just how much of their electricity mix is generated from renewables - from as little as 10% renewables all the way up to 100%.
If Powerdirect changes its electricity prices during your contract period you’ll be entitled to end the contract without paying the termination fees that would generally be applicable. You’ll have 20 days to act without penalty.
If you’re a residential customer and are having a tough time financially you may for Powerdirect’s Staying Connected Program.
Moving or switching with Powerdirect is convenient and simple - just give them or call or jump on their website. Just bear in mind that if you’re moving house it may take a few days for your new electricity connection to be set up, while switching could take a couple of months as it’s done at the time of your next scheduled meter read.

They are the best company I have ever been with, great rates and discounts and good solar rebates.
THEY ARE THE BEST WITH THEIR RATES AND THEY GIVE REALLY GOOD DISCOUNTS THEY ALSO GIVE VERY GOOD SOLAR TARIFF FEED IN RATES.
Power Direct has very competitive prices and they have a great pay on time discount. They have saved me over $250 a quarter and all I did was switch over to the company! Very happy customer.
Service is fine except for blackout last summer on a 42 degree day. The temperatures always go above 40 and arrangements should be made in advance to make sure it doesn’t happen.
Powerdirect is there as a nonentity. Never hear from them, never have any deal offers. Crappy service with overseas customer service centre.
