Energy Locals slashes daytime power costs for South Australians

Energy Locals 2 mins read

Good news for South Australians looking to ease the pressures of household costs. Energy Locals has launched an exciting new offer, the Daytime Saver plan, offering the lowest usage rates in the market. At just 14.4c/kWh from 10am to 3pm daily, this innovative plan allows households to make significant savings on their energy bills by tapping into cheaper electricity during daylight hours.

During Daytime Saver hours, customers pay an incredible 65% less* for their energy compared to peak usage rates, giving South Australians up to 16% off the reference price depending on the network and tariff.

The Daytime Saver plan takes advantage of periods when solar energy floods the grid, making daytime not only the cheapest time to use electricity but also the cleanest. By shifting energy use to these solar-rich hours, customers slash their bills while also reducing their environmental impact.

The Perfect Plan for Those at Home During the Day
According to Energy Locals founder Adrian Merrick, this new plan is a game-changer for South Australians who spend time at home during the day:

”Whether you work remotely, care for your family, or simply enjoy spending time at home, this plan allows you to use electricity for all your needs - from doing laundry, running cooling & heating/,to charging your electric vehicle - without worrying about sky-high bills.”

An Environmentally Friendly Choice
Beyond the potential significant cost-savings, Merrick also adds that there are major environmental benefits of this plan.

“Solar energy is at its peak during the middle of the day. By encouraging energy use during this time, South Australians can consume more renewable energy and reduce their carbon footprint.”

To get started and take advantage of this unique offer, all that’s needed is a smart meter at your property.
