Power Rates.
Compare the two biggest drivers of your power bill — the daily rate and the per-unit rate — and see what different retailers are charging in your area.
Compare the two numbers that
matter the most.
NZ electricity bills can be confusing for consumers to understand. The main cost drivers are the daily rate and the per-unit rate for electricity consumed, but these charges are often hidden amongst bundle discounts, early payment and credit card discounts, and inconsistent calculations for GST and EA Levies.
We think it should be easier to see and compare what power retailers in New Zealand are charging their customers. Upload your latest power bill and we'll show you how your rates compare to other plans available in your area.

We'll pull out the rates you're being charged and show you how they stack up against the other retailers operating in your area. Rates are normalised, GST and EA Levies included, discounts excluded - so you can compare the real rates being charged by different power companies.
How do your rates compare?
Each dot on the chart is a unique electricity plan, plotted by daily charge vs the per-unit rate. Only unique rates from individual energy retailers are shown. A 'benchmark cost' representing usage of 650 units over 28 days has been added for comparison. Use the filters below to explore plans from different retailers in different areas.

We do our best to process each PDF correctly, but sometimes we
might make mistakes - always verify anything important directly
with the retailer. We use AI to learn how to extract useful
information from bill formats we haven't seen before, but your
personal details (name, customer id, etc.) never go anywhere
near it.
We only care about the rates.
