Neighbourhood Energy powers up with Switchwise

Thursday, September 30th, 2010

Neighbourhood Energy, the Melbourne-based electricity provider owned by Alinta,  has today joined Australia’s leading energy comparison site – Switchwise. Consumers will now be able to compare, select and apply for Neighbourhood Energy’s electricity plans directly from the Switchwise website.

Neighbourhood Energy offers a range of electricity plans to households across Victoria, including:

  • 2 Year Fixed Term Offer – 12% pay on time discount on a 2 year contract
  • Standing Offer – 10% pay on time discount (no fixed term contract)

For those of you more environmentally inclined you can also choose to add GreenLight 100% accredited GreenPower to the above plans. When you choose GreenLight 100%, Neighbourhood Energy will ensure that all your power consumption is offset with electricity sourced from renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, mini-hydro and biomass.

If you also like to put your money where your mouth is Neighbourhood Energy operates a Community Partner Programme under which its customers can choose to donate their pay-on-time discounts to charity such as The Smith Family or The Royal Childrens’ Hospital.
