AGL electricity and gas plans

If you're thinking about switching to AGL energy plans, take a look at the table below to check whether it offers the plan you need in your state:

AGL caters to the varying needs of its customers across most states in Australia, with something to suit different budgets. These include AGL Value Saver, AGL Basics, and AGL Solar Savers. 

Each of these plans can apply to both AGL electricity ad AGL gas plans. 

AGL Value

A variable rate plan, the Value Saver product is only offered to customers who are signed up to e-billing. Some of the benefits and features of this plan include:

• No exit fees
• Flexibility to switch at any time
• Monthly billing options
• No lock-in contracts
• $150 Melbourne Victory membership refund or credit on sign-up (VIC customers only)
• Available in NSW, QLD, VIC, SA & WA

As well as these benefits, a monthly discount on AGL’s NBN plan is available. Customers seeking price stability may not suit the Value Saver plan, however, as the variable rates can mean the charges fluctuate.

AGL Basic

The Basic plan generally comes with higher rates than the Value Saver, but it's suitable for customers who want something more straightforward with no frills. As with the Value Saver plan, there are several benefits to the Basic plan:

• No exit fees
• Flexible billing options - monthly/quarterly
• No lock-in contracts
• Fixed discount on energy usage rates when signed up for 12m+
• Available in NSW, QLD, VIC & SA
• $150 Melbourne Victory membership refund or credit on sign-up (VIC customers only)

While the rates are slightly higher than those offered on the Value Saver plan, customers can enjoy the fact that these are fixed for the length of the contract, allowing them to plan their budget ahead.

AGL Solar Savers

The Solar Savers plan caters specifically for solar customers with discounts available to new customers who sign up with e-billing. Those who do can enjoy a solar feed-in tariff of up to 15c/kWh. Some of the features include:

• No lock-in contract
• No exit fees
• 12m plan
• e-billing only
• Variable rates that change with written notice
• $35 off selected AGL NBN plans when you bundle with energy
• Residential solar customers in QLD, NSW, VIC and SA with existing solar can sign up to AGL Solar Savers deal

It's important to note that AGL ended residential solar installation services in 2018. It is still continuing to help customers to get their solar head start with panels and battery storage through a third party.

AGL offers generous solar rebates, and with no lock-in contracts, there is very little risk.

AGL Set & Forget

This plan is reserved for WA customers only and it offers a fixed rate for 24 months. AGL offers customers a significant discount for paying by direct debit. Some features include:

• Flexible payment options - monthly or quarterly
• Set and forget about your bills while AGL does the rest
• Fixed rates for 24 months
• Easy utility management
• Only available for WA customers

AGL bundle plans

AGL offers customers the chance to bundle their bills by combining Internet and mobile options with their chosen energy plan.

This allows customers to manage their service and potentially save some money. Important features include:

• $35 off every month for 12 months on selected NBN plans, $15 per month off thereafter with AGL energy
• Eligible customers get 50% off their modem packs
• Up to $25 off mobile 4G plans - every month for six months

No matter which bundle customers choose, the discounts will only apply as long as the AGL energy plan is maintained. If you exit to switch suppliers, your discounts for mobile or internet will no longer apply.

AGL solar bundles

AGL offers an eco-friendly solution for homeowners who have existing solar panels on their home. Customers can reduce their carbon footprint and save money ‌and AGL’s solar battery bundles will enhance your solar solution.

If you buy a solar battery bundle you get an inverter, a battery and solar panels with it. Customers can also join the AGL Virtual Power Plant (VPP).

The VPP is a network of solar batteries that work together to support grid stability. Sharing excess energy in return for rewards will offer potential further savings along the way. Solar battery bundle features include:

• Up to $1,000 off the upfront cost when you join the VPP
• VIC customers can get money off their AGL solar battery package through the Victorian Government Solar Battery rebate.
• Convenient and easy payment options
• Interest free finance options over 60 months available through Plenti (buy now, pay later options)

AGL’s solar battery bundles are only installed within 100km of the state capital CBD where you are located.

AGL Standard

This bundle includes:

• Sungrow high voltage battery
• 6.63kW JA solar PV system
• Sungrow 5.0kVA high voltage hybrid inverter

The Sungrow battery has a 9.6 kWh usable battery capacity with backup power available as needed. It can be floor-mounted and installed either indoor or outdoor. Certified carbon neutral, it comes with a 10-year warranty.

AGL Premium

This bundle includes:

• Tesla Powerwall
• Fronius Primo inverter
• 6.63kW JA solar PV system
• Limited time $750 rebate on Powerwall
  

The Tesla Powerwall has a 13.5 kWh usable capacity, which is significantly higher than the Sungrow high voltage battery in the standard plan. There's also a fully integrated Tesla inverter and it can be installed indoors or outdoors. It comes with a 10-year warranty and it's certified carbon neutral.

Both of these bundles can be bought with a $0 deposit through Plenti, so homeowners have an easy-to-manage payment plan option.

AGL Electric Vehicle plan

With AGL, customers who are looking to reduce their carbon footprint can drive into the future with the AGL Electric Vehicle plan.

With an electric vehicle subscription, AGL is offering home charging options and a unique energy plan designed to make charging an EV easy at home.

AGL Electric Vehicle Subscription

To get an EV subscription and enjoy new and exciting technology, all you need to do is:

• Find a car available for subscription with AGL
• Choose the subscription term from 1-12 months
• Add a charger to the plan
• Sign your contract and get your car

AGL offers carbon neutral charging, with included carbon offsets for your home if you have an AGL electricity plan. Customers can also swap their electric vehicle every six months (subject to availability).

AGL sells home chargers for your electric car, too. Customers can reduce their charging costs by using solar power to charge their vehicle as well.

AGL Night Saver

This plan is available to eligible residential customers and offers low overnight rates. Some features of the AGL Night Saver include:

• Low overnight rates between 12 and 6am no matter the tariff
• Up to $150 in online sign-up credits
• Variable rates
• No lock-in contract
• 12 month energy plan with no exit fee
• eBilling only
• Solar feed-in tariff
• Flexibility in how you pay
• Carbon neutral

To be eligible for the Night Saver EV plan, customers must:

• Hold an AGL electric vehicle subscription
• Own an electric vehicle registered to their AGL electricity plan

Customers do not need to have a dedicated EV charger to get this specific plan, but do need a digital metre so that AGL can accurately measure how much energy is used during the off-peak period overnight.

Electric vehicles can be cheaper to run, especially with AGL’s solar electric vehicle chargers. So, when you switch to driving an EV you could save on fuel and enjoy easy maintenance.

AGL’s Night Saver plan supports customers by offering cheaper overnight rates that keep your electric vehicle costs down.

AGL rewards

AGL offers a reward program to its members to give something back and acknowledge its customers’ commitment to its brand. The rewards are diverse to suit a range of customers, with categories including:

• Everyday savings and home living
• Dining
• Entertainment and travel
• Retail, health and beauty

Accessing rewards with AGL is easy through the app. Customers are free to explore the rewards on offer, and AGL communicates its members-only offers through e-newsletters.

Customers should be aware that AGL is not the supplier of the rewards on offer, which means that all queries regarding redeeming offers should be taken to the retailer directly.
