Electricity prices in Gungahlin
Your electricity bill is made up of two main charges: a usage rate (measured in c/kWh) for the electricity you consume, and a daily supply charge (measured in c/day) that applies regardless of how much you use.
In the Evoenergy zone covering Gungahlin, benchmark rates sit around 24.3 c/kWh for usage and 87 c/day for supply. These are indicative figures; your retailer sets the actual rates on your plan.
Based on these benchmarks, typical annual household bills in this zone fall between $1,355and $1,685 before discounts or concessions.
Bills also vary based on household size, whether you have controlled load (such as a hot water system on a separate tariff), time-of-use vs flat-rate pricing, and any applicable discounts.
Regional areas such as Gungahlin can experience different network charges compared to metropolitan centres, which affects the total cost of plans even when usage rates are similar.

The right electricity plan depends on your household type, usage patterns, and whether you have solar. Here is what to look for in Gungahlin.
Renters
Look for no lock-in contract plans with no exit fees. Flexibility matters most if your lease is short-term.
Families
Focus on the lowest usage rate available. In the Evoenergy zone, rates start from around 19.4 c/kWh.
Apartments
Apartments tend to use less electricity. A low daily supply charge can matter more than a low usage rate for smaller households.
Solar households
Compare both usage rates and feed-in tariff rates. The best plan balances what you pay for grid electricity with what you earn from exporting solar.
Low-usage homes
If you use under 10 kWh per day, prioritise a low daily supply charge. Some plans offer lower supply charges in exchange for slightly higher usage rates.
High-usage homes
Prioritise the lowest usage rate. Large households, those with pool pumps, or homes with electric heating benefit most from competitive c/kWh rates.
How to compare electricity plans in Gungahlin
- 1
Enter your postcode
Start by entering postcode 2912 into our comparison tool. This identifies which distributor zone you are in and which retailers publish plans for your area.
- 2
Compare usage and supply charges
Look at both the usage rate (c/kWh) and daily supply charge (c/day). The usage rate usually has the biggest impact on your bill, but the supply charge adds up over a full year.
- 3
Check discounts and conditions
Some plans offer discounts for paying on time, paying by direct debit, or going paperless. Make sure you understand the conditions attached to any advertised discount.
- 4
Review solar feed-in tariff
If you have rooftop solar, compare the feed-in tariff rate alongside the usage rate. A higher feed-in rate can significantly offset your bill if you export electricity during the day.

Switch online
Once you have found a suitable plan, complete the sign-up online. Your new retailer arranges the switch in the background. The process typically takes 2 to 5 business days and your electricity supply is not interrupted.
