Vinnies tracking cost changes
Since 2008, the St Vincent de Paul Society has developed practical solutions and advocate for positive changes to be implemented by government, industry and energy market institutions.
In the energy market we have produced tariff-tracking reports and workbooks analysing electricity and gas tariffs, using a spreadsheet-based tool that allows consumer advocates to build on the initial analysis and continue to track changes as they occur.
With both State and Federal governments having commitments to Net Zero by 2050 we will see a new energy future. This will include electric vehicles, more rooftop solar, home and community batteries to name a few.
A similar challenge exists for those that have home gas. This may see households switch to bio-gas or hydrogen or the phase out of gas appliances altogether as we electrify everything.
This is a once in a lifetime change in the energy systems. The St Vincent to Paul Society is deeply concerned and aims to make sure this transition is equitable, fair and nobody is left behind with this in mind.
We are following changes in Energy Tariffs and will continue to provide the best advice and solutions necessary to assist low-income households.
Tariff-Tracking Reports
Our state-specific energy reports present region-specific summaries regarding the changes and impacts of energy pricing on marginalised households.
