How we worked this out
Default Market Offer prices fell 3.4% to 5.0% in NSW from 1 July 2026. Ausgrid covers Sydney, the Central Coast and the Hunter and is the cheapest zone; Endeavour Energy covers western Sydney; Essential Energy covers regional NSW at noticeably higher rates. Most households are already on a market offer, so the fall in the DMO does not reach them automatically.
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 come from live retailer plan data published under the Consumer Data Right, refreshed weekly. Your bill depends on your retailer, tariff type, meter and usage pattern. This is a guide, not a quote.

Who supplies electricity in Liverpool and nearby suburbs?
Liverpool is generally supplied by Endeavour Energy. Your electricity bill names your distributor, so check it there before relying on the network-specific figures below. Poles and wires are owned by the distributor and are the same whichever retailer bills you, so switching retailer never changes the physical supply or who you call in an outage.
How much does electricity cost in Liverpool and nearby suburbs?
The Default Market Offer reference price for the Endeavour Energy network is $2,328 a year at 4,900 kWh (AER 2026-27 final determination, Table 2.1). Ausgrid is $1,899 at 3,900 kWh, but the Endeavour reference assumes higher usage, so the two are not directly comparable. Here is the gap an offer below the reference price can make.
| Reference price | $2,328 a year |
| An offer 5% under the reference | about $2,212 a year |
| An offer 15% under the reference | about $1,979 a year |
| Possible saving | about $116 to $349 a year |
Simple arithmetic on the reference price, for illustration. Your bill depends on your usage and plan.
Our take on Liverpool and nearby suburbs
Liverpool is a big postcode with very different pockets: central Liverpool is mostly fibre to the premises, with about 14,600 premises, while the surrounding suburbs such as Casula, Lurnea and Warwick Farm lean on HFC cable. That makes the right internet choice depend on your street, so check your address first. The Endeavour reference price of $2,328 looks high next to Ausgrid, but it is built on higher assumed usage (4,900 kWh against 3,900), so do not read it as Liverpool paying more per unit. Compare the actual rates on offer.
