What plans are available from Alinta and Kleenheat in WA?
Note: Discounts and incentives change often. Be sure to check with the brand before signing up or applying.
Alinta Energy Plans
Alinta Fair Go 35: Only available for online sign-ups. Get 35% guaranteed discount off gas usage charges for a 12-month benefit period.
Alinta Fair Go 25: Similar to the Fair Go 35 plan, except you'll receive a 25% guaranteed discount for a benefit period of 3 years, instead.
Alinta Sports Pack: This offers variable rate natural gas plus a free Kayo Sports Basic subscription for the first 12 months of your plan.
Kleenheat Plans
Kleenheat Monthly Energiser: Guaranteed 35% discount off gas usage charges for the first 2 years of your plan. Must pay by direct debit and accept email billing and communications.
Kleenheat Monthly Smart Saver: Guaranteed 25% discount on your natural gas usage charges for a 24-month benefit period. You will have to pay by direct debit and agree to email communications and billing. This plan comes with a $50 welcome bonus in the form of a bill credit or gift card.
Kleenheat Standard Form Contract: This plan comes with a 12.5% discount on your usage charges, but only when you pay on time. Unlike other Kleenheat plans, there's flexible payment and billing. You'll get a $50 welcome bonus as either a bill credit or a gift card.
Verdict
Alinta offers incentives in the form of access to the Alinta Rewards Store, which contains a range of discounts and offers on movie tickets, electronics and more. Kleenheat's incentive is a minimal $50 bill credit/gift card on some of its plans.
Neither Kleenheat or Alinta allow for account management or bill payment through a mobile phone app, and Kleenheat's cheapest plans require you to pay via direct debit. There's not a lot to set Kleenheat apart from Alinta, but you might be better off siding with Alinta if you want slightly better customer service. Otherwise, choose a plan and brand based on your individual circumstances and your natural gas needs.
Energy providers often offer introductory discounts, sign-up credits, or ongoing loyalty benefits. These can significantly impact the overall cost of a gas plan beyond the basic tariff. Kleenheat are currently running a $50 welcome gift.
Contract terms and potential exit fees are important considerations that can tie a customer to a provider or incur costs if they switch early. While specific plans vary, it's common for gas plans to have benefit periods (e.g., 12 or 24 months) after which rates may change, and some may include early termination fees. You should always review the Key Facts Sheet (KFS) or energy fact sheet for any chosen plan to understand these details.
With increasing environmental awareness, many consumers are interested in sustainable energy options. Some gas providers offer schemes where customers can pay a small additional fee to offset the carbon emissions from their gas usage. Alinta has invested in a range of renewable energy initiatives like wind and battery storage projects.
Billing convenience is important for managing household expenses. Providers typically offer various billing cycles (e.g., monthly, quarterly) and payment methods (e.g., direct debit, BPay, credit card). Some may also offer hardship programs or flexible payment arrangements. Details on specific billing options and payment flexibility for Alinta Energy and Kleenheat should be confirmed on their official websites or by contacting their customer support.
Availability is a fundamental question for any comparison, as a great deal is irrelevant if the service isn't offered in a user's location. Alinta Energy has a broader presence, often serving multiple states across electricity and gas. Kleenheat's gas services are primarily focused on Western Australia. You should always verify service availability by entering your postcode on the provider's website.

Important information about this website
Finder is a comparison service. We do not compare every product or every provider in the market.
We make money through commercial arrangements with some of the providers on this site. Products marked 'Sponsored', 'Promoted', 'Featured' or 'Advertisement' appear as a result of a commercial arrangement.
Our editorial content, product reviews and any 'Top Pick' designations are prepared independently of these commercial arrangements.
The default order of products in our tables can be influenced by commercial arrangements. You can re-sort or filter using the controls above each table.
Some content on this site may be generated or supported by AI tools. You should verify details directly with the provider.
Finder is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We are committed to our readers and stand by our editorial principles.
Our comparison service does not include every product or every provider in the market. Some product issuers offer their products under multiple brands or through associated companies. Where we can, we identify the underlying issuer so you can compare like with like, but you should always check with the provider directly to confirm which brand you are dealing with.
Finder is a comparison website and an intermediary. We are not a product issuer and we do not provide personal financial or credit advice. When you click a link to a product, or apply for a product through our site, you deal directly with the product issuer. We may receive a referral fee, commission or other payment from the issuer if you click through, apply or take out a product. We describe these arrangements in more detail under 'How we make money' below.
Product features, fees, terms and eligibility criteria are set by the product issuer and may change. We rely on information supplied by issuers when we present product details on our site. Before you apply for or take out any product, you should confirm the details directly with the issuer.
We earn revenue from Finder in four principal ways:
Referral fees and commissions. When you click a product link, complete an enquiry form or apply for a product through our site, we may receive a referral fee, commission or other payment from the product issuer. We may also receive payment based on the volume of leads or conversions we send to an issuer.
Sponsored placements. Products marked 'Sponsored', 'Promoted', 'Featured' or 'Advertisement' appear as a result of a commercial arrangement between Finder and the issuer. These labels always indicate a paid placement. We do not use them for editorial choices.
Display advertising. Banner advertising, newsletter advertising and similar display ads on our site are paid by advertisers.
Content sponsorship. Some articles, videos and social media posts are sponsored by an issuer and are clearly labelled as such.
Our editorial opinions, product reviews and any 'Top Pick' designations are prepared independently of these commercial arrangements. A 'Top Pick' is an editorial choice made by our writers and editors based on the criteria described on each comparison page. A 'Top Pick' is not a personal recommendation and does not mean the product is appropriate for your circumstances.
If you would like to know whether we have a commercial arrangement with a specific product issuer, please contact us.
When products are grouped in a table or list, the default order can be influenced by commercial arrangements we have with product issuers. In some categories, sponsored or featured products appear in the top positions of the table by default, and are always labelled as such.
Other factors that influence default order include price, fees and features, and (where relevant) our editorial view of the product.
You can re-sort every comparison table using the controls above the table. You can filter by product features that matter to you. The order you see after re-sorting or filtering is not influenced by commercial arrangements.
