Pricing conditions
  1. Electricity plan

We don’t plan to change your energy plan pricing during the five-year contract term.

The only reason we would be able to vary your electricity prices, is where the costs we incur in selling you electricity varies or we expect they will, but only where that cost variation arises from a future Change in Law. Some examples of previous Change in Law events include the introduction of a carbon tax and a new government levy to support ambulance services. We would provide you with advance notice of any variation in your electricity prices.

  1. Solar and battery component

Monthly cost is calculated on total cost of solar and battery (Nectr does not add fees or mark ups) divided into 60 equal installments.

Early exit fees

If you decide to exit the Solar Battery contract early, you must pay the remainder of the Battery balance. Please note, the Battery Price decreases uniformly each month before reaching $0 on the day your contract ends at 5 years.

If you decide to exit the Solar Battery contract, you can still continue with the associated energy plan and $10 VPP participation. However you can also switch to another retailer at this point with no exit fees.

Some reasons for early exit include:

  • You sell or vacate your premise
  • You fail to pay three bills by their due date in any 12-month period
  • You fail to meet eligibility criteria of contracts during the contract period
Key fees

Nectr Plan Fees & Rates are set by your Local Energy Network Distributor and charged to Nectr on your behalf. You can review all the key fees in our Plans and fees page.
