We have better value gas plans for WA business customers. Talk with an Amanda Energy gas expert to find out how much you will save when you switch to Amanda.
Want to turn your roof into an energy generation machine? We’ll help you with a feasibility study and savings assessment to see if solar stacks up for your business.
Since 2010, Amanda Energy has been the leading WA owned and operated alternative electricity retailer in the Western Power Grid, offering both energy consumption and management services to Western Australian businesses.
We don’t believe one-size-fits all. We customise energy plans for businesses of all sizes in any industry, from agriculture and manufacturing to retail, food processing and mining. We make sure you get the outcome that’s right for you by analysing your energy usage and investing time to learn about your business needs now and plans for the future.
We can help to identify cost savings opportunities, such as reducing peak consumption charges, opportunity to shift energy usage to off-peak lower rate periods and improvements to energy efficiency within the business. We can also help you assess whether a combination of electricity, gas and solar will help you reduce your overall business energy bills.
TALK WITH US TODAYRather than offer a standard tariff, we look at your individual power usage. With your consent, we examine your consumption every 30 minutes for the last four years to understand your specific energy needs. This information allows us to tailor a solution that gives you the best available overall price based on your consumption profile. We also assess if solar and the Amanda ‘Beat the Peak’ or ‘Shave and Save’ products can deliver further discounts on your bills.
It’s not always just about getting the lowest tariff – it is about achieving the lowest total energy spend for each customer. The Amanda holistic approach includes consideration of median peak loads, the effect of solar systems, the Amanda ‘Beat the Peak’ and ‘Shave and Save’ programs and also power conditioning, contract maximum demand optimisation and other initiatives for savings on your electricity, solar and gas bills. This ‘in depth’ review is part of our service to ensure customers get the right outcome for their business.
Electricity consumers within the South West Interconnected System (SWIS) can be divided into two general categories ‒ contestable and non-contestable ‒ based on the quantity of electricity they consume during each year.
Non-contestable customers are those that consume 50 megawatt hours of electricity or less during a year. If you consume more than 50,000 kWh/year (approximately $1,200/month) you are in the contestable customers category and can go to a provider other than Synergy. Amanda Energy has a licence to supply electricity to contestable customers. Smaller consumers must remain with Synergy and may not go to other retailers.
Yes. The Western Power grid ensures all meters have access to electricity from all generators. Western Power retains responsibility for the transmission, distribution, safety, quality and reliability of electricity in Perth and greater WA. Your electricity supply will be delivered through the same network regardless of which of the electricity providers you choose. Note: Western Power does not generate electricity and is not an energy retailer.
If you want to purchase power from a retail electricity provider other than Synergy, to benefit from Amanda initiatives or to have a commercial solar installation, you must have an ‘interval’ meter, commonly called a ‘smart’ meter, which gives readings every half hour.
Customers have the right to request that their old style accumulation meter is changed for an interval meter for the standard fee charged by Western Power. If your power has ever been supplied by energy providers other than Synergy, or you already have a solar system, you will already have an interval meter.
If you already have a smart (interval) meter fitted there will be absolutely no interruption. To fit a smart meter, Amanda will work with you and Western Power to minimise any inconvenience.
The SWIS is made up of the South West Interconnected Network (SWIN) together with all the electricity generators. Western Power is the operator for the transmission and distribution network. It is often referred to as the Western Power grid.
The Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) is an industry-funded semi government organisation whose role is to operate and develop the Wholesale Electricity Market (WEM) and the Gas Information Services Project (GISP) in Western Australia. The WEM operates in the SWIS. Its job is to:
The cost of energy supply varies between meters for a few reasons. The historical consumption for that meter affects the future cost of supply for capacity (peak demand) charges and network charges – information including the amount of power consumed and the time of day and the time of year it is consumed also affects the cost. Fixed charges such as the distance of the meter from generators and sub stations also vary from meter to meter.
