How weather affects Victoria electricity rates

Victoria residents are used to steamy hot summers and mild winters. In July and August, the average high temperature is in the mid -90s in Victoria. But in December, January, and February, daily high temperatures average in the upper 60s and the lows are in the 40s. Because of that variation, there’s more demand for electricity on those summer days when your AC is cranking non-stop and electricity prices peak. The milder days of winter bring lower electricity rates. If possible, shop for electricity rates at a time of the year when demand for power is lower. By shopping in the winter or early spring, you can find a cheaper electricity rate than if you compare rates in August.

Variable-rate plans in Victoria

With a variable-rate plan, you may get a low introductory rate, but your energy rates could rise because your electricity rate is not fixed. Instead, your rate will change based on the wholesale cost of electricity in the market. Variable-rate plans do not lock you into a contract, making them a more flexible option.
