Estimates of the market, not a recommendation or a quote. Typical usage is a benchmark for a home of that size in the Energex area with no solar (about 5,500 kWh a year for 3 people, our own working figure until the regulator's published benchmark is loaded), priced by the same engine as the paid check on the Australian Energy Regulator’s plan data. Your own usage, your tariff and any solar change the answer, and a home with solar panels usually imports much less than this.

What decides a bill in Moreton Bay.

The bayside and peninsula suburbs have a mild coastal climate and a lot of retirees at home during the day, which suits plans with cheap daytime rates. North Lakes, Griffin, Narangba and Burpengary are new estates with smart meters and solar; the Samford and Dayboro valleys are acreage, where pumps and sheds add to the load.

None of that changes which plans are sold: every generally available plan on the regulator’s feed is offered across the whole Energex network. It changes which of them comes out cheapest, which is why the paid check prices every one on your own bill rather than on a typical home.

Three things worth understanding first

Quick answers for Moreton Bay.

Who is the cheapest electricity provider in Moreton Bay?

There is no one cheapest retailer in Moreton Bay. The cheapest plan depends on how much electricity your home uses and when, whether you have solar or a controlled load, and what meter you have. On typical usage for a home of 3 people, the plans sold in Moreton Bay cost between about $1,790 and $7,680 a year at their current rates with no conditional discounts counted, so an ordinary plan and the best one are about $450 a year apart. The only way to name the cheapest for your home is to price every plan on your own bill.

How many electricity plans are available in Moreton Bay?

917 generally available residential electricity plans from 26 retailers were open to a home of 3 people in Moreton Bay on 30 September 2026, according to the Australian Energy Regulator's plan data. Every one of them is sold across the whole Energex network, so Moreton Bay has exactly the same choice as every other South East Queensland suburb; what differs from home to home is usage, not the plans.

Is Moreton Bay on the Energex network?

Yes. Moreton Bay is in the City of Moreton Bay area, which Energex serves. Energex owns the poles, wires and meters and delivers the electricity whichever retailer you pay, and its area is the only part of Queensland where households can choose a retailer. Regional Queensland is served by Ergon Energy on prices the regulator sets.

Can I get the Solar Sharer Offer in Moreton Bay?

Yes, if your home has a smart meter. Every retailer with more than 1,000 customers must offer a Solar Sharer plan in South East Queensland, with electricity free between 11am and 2pm every day, and it is open to renters and homes without solar. It is a plan you opt into, not a discount on the one you have, and it is paid for by higher rates outside the window, so it only saves money for a home in Moreton Bay that can move a real share of its usage into the middle of the day.

Which retailers sell electricity in Moreton Bay?

26 retailers sold a generally available plan a typical home in Moreton Bay could take on 30 September 2026, according to the Australian Energy Regulator's plan data: 1st Energy, AGL, Alinta Energy, Amber Electric, CovaU, Diamond Energy, Dodo, Energy Locals Urban, EnergyAustralia, ENGIE, ERC Energy, Flipped Energy, Flow Power, Future X Power, GEE Energy, Globird Energy, Kogan Energy, Momentum Energy, Nectr, Next Business Energy, Origin Energy, OVO Energy, Powershop, Red Energy, Sumo, Tango Energy. The list is alphabetical and not a ranking; the cheapest plan for your home could be from any of them, and every one of them is sold across the whole Energex network.

Is a time-of-use plan cheaper than a single-rate plan in Moreton Bay?

On typical usage for a home of 3 people, the cheapest single-rate plan sold in Moreton Bay costs about $1,790 a year and the cheapest time-of-use plan about $1,790, at current rates with no conditional discounts counted, as at 30 September 2026. Which is cheaper for your home depends on how much of your usage falls in the evening peak: a home that can keep the dishwasher, the pool pump and the car charger out of it does better on time of use, a home that cooks and cools through the evening does not, and a time-of-use plan needs a smart meter.

What is the average electricity bill in Moreton Bay?

On typical usage and a middle-of-the-road plan, a home of 2 people in Moreton Bay pays about $1,990 a year, or about $500 a quarter, and a home of 4 people about $2,490 a year, or about $620 a quarter, at the plans' current rates with no conditional discounts counted, as at 30 September 2026. The best plan on the market is about $410 a year below that for the smaller home and about $500 for the larger. A home with solar usually imports much less than typical usage, and a home with a pool or electric hot water more, so your own bill is the only figure that is actually yours.
