Powercor | Western Victoria | 18% increase for commercial customers. |
Jemena | Melbourne North & North West | Increases of just over 7% for larger commercial clients. |
United | Melbourne South East | After mild CPI increases last year, this year increases are around 12% across all tariffs. |
SP Ausnet | Eastern Victoria | Highly variable between the tariffs. Smaller commercial customers can expect increases of 8.7%, while charges for medium commercial customers are overall similar to last year.
