Low User option
If you use less than 8,000 units a year (about 660kwh/month) at your primary residence, the Low User option may be best for you. This rises to 9,000 units (750kwh/month) in parts of the lower South Island.
You pay:
- a lower daily fixed charge
- a higher variable charge for each unit of electricity you use. The Low User option is only available for your primary residence and not, for example, your holiday home.
Standard User option
If you use more electricity, a Standard User option may be better.
You pay:
- a higher daily rate
- a slightly lower rate for each unit of electricity you use.
