NT residential customers are supplied on regulated tariffs with no competing retail offers, so there is no plan to switch to.
How we worked this out
The Northern Territory operates a separate regulated market, with Jacana Energy the main residential supplier and rates set by the Territory Government.
Typical bills use average single-rate residential rates for 2026–27 (effective 1 July 2026), from the AER Default Market Offer and ESC Victorian Default Offer determinations, reviewed 20 July 2026. Cheapest plan figures are indicative, based on the lowest-cost plans on our panel excluding conditional discounts. Your bill depends on your retailer, tariff type, meter and usage pattern. This is a guide, not a quote.
