HAVE A QUESTION?

Check out our most frequently asked questions about the EV Discount.
How can I get the EV Discount? To get the EV Discount, you need to own or have a long-term lease for a plug-in vehicle, plus have a smart meter at your property. If you’d like to get this offer please complete the sign-up form or contact our team. Terms and eligibility criteria apply.
Does the 20% off apply to all my electricity usage? Yes, with our EV Discount, you’ll get 20% off all your household’s variable electricity usage from 9pm to 7am. This discount doesn’t apply to your non-variable electricity charges, such as your daily fixed charge and the electricity authority levy.
Can the discount be applied for several properties? The EV Discount can only be applied to your primary residence. 
Can this be combined with other offers? Sorry, this offer can’t be combined with any others. Get in touch with our team if you’d like to confirm whether you’d be eligible for the EV Discount.
How will this appear on my bill? Once the EV Discount is applied to your account, you’ll see this on your bill as a calculation within your electricity charges. Which will show both the amount of electricity used between 9pm and 7am and the corresponding discount as a credit.
Why do I need a smart meter in order to get this offer? You’ll need a communicating smart meter at your property to be eligible for this offer. This is because a smart meter would allow us to record and then apply a discount to the power you use between 9pm and 7am.
