Compare energy plans in Queensland — send us your bill
Whether you're in Brisbane or regional Queensland, it's worth checking whether your current energy plan still fits how you use power.
Bill Ninja is a free energy bill check for homes and small businesses in Queensland. Send us a recent electricity or gas bill. We compare your usage against plans listed on Energy Made Easy, the Australian Government's free comparison site, and send you a plain-English report showing any cheaper plans we find. There is no upfront fee and no card needed. If the report helps and you're happy, you can tip what feels fair. If we don't find a saving, you pay nothing. We take no commissions from energy retailers.
How it works
Snap a photo or upload a PDF of a recent bill (about two minutes). We use the details on the bill, including your National Meter Identifier (NMI) — a 10 or 11-character code that identifies your electricity meter — to look up your usage and compare plans accurately. Most reports are ready within about 24 hours. You decide whether to switch.
No bill yet? If you're moving house or setting up energy for the first time, you can answer a few quick questions and we'll compare plans for your postcode instead.
South East Queensland and regional Queensland are different
Your distributor owns the poles and wires. It's not the same as your retailer. The distributor is usually named on your bill.
- Energex is the electricity distributor for Brisbane, the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast and surrounds. In South East Queensland you can choose from competing retail plans, and Energy Made Easy is the place we use to compare them.
- Ergon Energy Network covers country and regional Queensland. Retail competition there is limited. Most customers are supplied by Ergon Energy Retail on regulated prices, because a government subsidy keeps those prices in line with South East Queensland. Other retailers generally can't match that subsidy, so there may be little or no cheaper plan to move to. We'll still check what's listed for your postcode on Energy Made Easy.
- Essential Energy also serves some customers in parts of southern regional Queensland.
If you have gas, Allgas Energy serves areas south of the Brisbane River, the South Coast, Toowoomba and Oakey. Australian Gas Networks serves the Brisbane CBD, Ipswich and suburbs north of the Brisbane River. In some towns the local council runs the gas network.
You can also use Energy Made Easy yourself at energymadeeasy.gov.au.
