Savings from removal of carbon price will be passed on to households if repealed

EnergyAustralia has always been clear it will pass on the full savings to households if the carbon price is removed.

All electricity retailers must operate within the law and, until the scheme is repealed, we must continue to pay for carbon.

Once the Federal Government stops collecting the tax from us, we’ll then ensure those savings are passed on to our customers.

If the carbon price legislation is to be repealed, then it is in the best interests of business and households alike that the decision is made sooner rather than later to remove ambiguity and to minimise costly system changes.
