Choosing the right energy tariff can make a big difference to your energy costs—especially if you have solar panels, battery storage, or an electric vehicle. From fixed and variable rate tariffs to Time of Use plans like Economy 7, and even Export Tariffs that pay you for your excess solar energy, understanding your options is key to getting the most out of your setup. Solar and battery owners can benefit most from flexible or off-peak tariffs, while export tariffs like the Smart Export Guarantee allow you to earn from your clean energy generation. With the right combination, you can reduce your bills, boost your savings, and take full advantage of your solar investment.
