Household and Small Business Electricity Credit Offsets

We welcome the announcements by the WA State Government and Commonwealth Government of two credit offsets for eligible accounts of residential and small business customers.

The first funded by the WA State Government,  will see eligible residential and small business account customers receiving a $400 non-refundable offset, applied to their account over two instalments. 

In addition to this, the Commonwealth Energy Bill Relief credit offset, funded by the Commonwealth Government, will provide a $300 non-refundable credit offset to eligible accounts of residential customers, and a $325 non-refundable credit offset to eligible accounts of small business customers. This will also be applied over two instalments.
