Our take on Powershop
Powershop uses a unique "power packs" model where you purchase blocks of electricity through their app, often at discounted rates. This can be cheaper than traditional plans if you actively engage with the app and buy packs strategically. However, it requires more effort than a set-and-forget plan. Their acquisition by Shell in 2022 changed the ownership from Meridian Energy (New Zealand Government) to a fossil fuel major, which may affect the appeal for environmentally-motivated customers despite the carbon neutral certification.
Powershop also offers the Solar Sharer Standing Offer, free electricity from 11am to 2pm in NSW and QLD, or 12pm to 3pm in SA. See the Free Power Hub to see if it beats buying power packs strategically.
