Energy companies hike prices up by nine per cent | Sky News Australia

Big energy companies have hiked their 'cheapest deals for families' up by nine per cent this year according to new data from the Energy Regulator.

The results show AGL, Energy Australia and Origin raised the prices of their cheapest deals between June and July between six and nine per cent. Families in Western Sydney and regional New South Wales will be hit the hardest after the Federal Government's power price re-regulation. Image: Getty

What happened to the big stick? What happened to lower prices? Why won't Sky Propaganda call out the liars in govt?

So much for the big stick. 🙄

Yet your channel and all your talking heads didn't question the claim by WellDoneAngus that they had a plan to reduce our electricity bills. You have failed in your ONLY requirement as a news provider...present factual, researched, unbiased news.

Fantastic. Great move. Well done Angus.

Well done LNP. Look what having no energy policy, No water policy. No future-proofing & No acceptance of climate science does! Keep those accounts open in the Caymans AngusTaylorMP you'll need a parachute once we're all completely screwed by you.

🙄 yet wages stay stagnant.

janettj777 When i sit watching tv and shivering with the cold weather at 3 degrees (because it's too expensive to run the heater) i keep reminding myself how great this country is and how lucky i am..

Time to sack the energy minister and appoint someone who will see sense on renewables. Renewables are the quickest and cheapest way to reduce prices (and emissions). Investment needs certainty. Ideological warrior clown Angus Taylor needs to go.

6 years of deliberate Coalition government neglect inaction mismanagement incompetence and failures on energy policy..and STILL no energy policy to address infrastructure shortfalls and their greedy coal electricity company mates robbing rorting and price gouging Australians

On what basis can the increase prices by 4 times the cpi?

Incredible in a resource rich country

The Energy Regulator doesn't seem to be doing much regulating.

So the LiberalAus have now changed their EnergyMantra to the PartyForHigherPowerPrices LetTheMarketDecide MoreLiberalLies auspol theprojecttv speers PMLive

That makes it 167% increase under these Fucktards So HOWS that privatization thingy GOING FOR YA AUSTRALIA Well done AngusTaylorMP the Member for PissAndWind auspol theprojecttv theboltreport PMLive

Angus Taylor promised power prices would drop 25%, so this is liberals lie number 246838646382864 in the last 6 years.....

So much for a fairer deal for families eh !

Fear not good people. The future of energy is coming. Companies like RestartEnergyio are a game changer in the energy sector. Connecting consumers direct with producers cutting out the middlemen. The greedy big energy companies days are numbered.

Maybe the privatisation of energy wasn't in the best interest of Australian families...

Oh how wonderful ..I love not being able to pay power bills 😕😒🙄

Quadruple your prices then promote a 10% discount, yeah they think people are stooopid!

Wacky? Pot,black That's fine, while these companies are striking and losing productivity others that arent will surpass them Vive le capitalism!
