To save more, match your power plan to your lifestyle. If you're home during the day, a 'time of use' plan could cut costs by using power during off-peak hours. Tailoring your plan to your routine helps keep more money in your pocket.
Head to the Electricity Authority’s website, where they offer free tools to help you compare and switch plans with ease. With so many New Zealanders already saving up to $400 a year, there’s no reason to wait. Smart power choices start here, and the benefits can last all year long.
Take charge of your electricity costs and see how much you could save today. You might just wonder why you didn’t switch sooner.

Price is for both. Contact Liz 027 246 7069

Great as a spare fridge/freezer in the garage.
Pick up is in Otaihanga. Contact Liz 027 246 7069

I'm like many looking at replacing Frank Energy
I have looked at Kiwi electric. They seem to be the best for me, but I wonder if anyone uses them and if so how do you rate them for service?
