A quick review of Dodo Energy
Pros
- Electricity plans for residents of NSW, VIC, SA, and QLD, as well as natural gas to VIC and parts of NSW.
- Simple energy plans without complicated features or discounts.
Cons
- While Dodo can provide all your home services (including Internet), it makes it harder to tell whether you're getting a good deal on each one individually.
What energy plans are offered by Dodo?
Electricity
Simple variable rate residential electricity plan with flexible payment options and no lock-in contract. There are no extra features or discounts associated with this particular plan.
Gas
Much like their electricity offerings, this is a basic variable rate natural gas plan with flexible payments. It may include a pay on time discount in certain states, but this can change.
Does Dodo Energy offer solar?
Dodo Energy does not offer solar installation services, but if you have a pre-existing solar system you'll receive solar feed-in tariffs depending on what state you live in.
How green is Dodo Energy?
Dodo Energy scored a 4.4/10 on the Green Electricity Guide, putting it right in the middle of Australian energy retailers. It doesn't really offer carbon offsets, has an unclear stance on fossil fuels, but is at least transparent about its energy use.
Dodo does offer 10% to 100% GreenPower on its plans, and its solar feed-in tariffs are generally higher than the minimum for each state.
Can I manage my plan from my phone?
No, there's no dedicated mobile platform for managing your Dodo plan. The most you can do is pay bills via the Dodo website.

Important notes: The estimated price we show by default is based on a single rate tariff. On your bill this might be known as a 'peak tariff', 'peak only' or an 'anytime tariff'. There are other tariff types available to customers and you may need to contact your provider if you are on these tariffs:
- Single rate with a controlled load
- Time of use
- Time of use with a controlled load
The price estimate should not be used as an official quote, but an indication of what your costs may be on the plan. It varies based on whether you provide us with your bill details. You can learn more here.

I need my power on asap what company can turn it on after hours
Hi Sara,
Thanks for getting in touch!
Choosing a provider for energy depends on where you are located. As per Dodo, their operating hours are from 10 am-7 pm only. To find out other providers’ operating hours, you must first check the providers offering gas and electricity in your state. Once you have decided which one to go for, you can go to their website’s contact page and you’ll be able to find their operating hours. Hope this helps!
Best,
Nikki

I am with Dodo for wifi. I’m wondering if I was to change service providers for electricity and gas if there would be a bundle discount and would it be to my advantage to change?
Hi Jan,
Thanks for reaching out to us.
Regarding your question, the answer is yes. You can actually bundle your Internet, gas, and electricity. Please check our guide, “Will bundling your electricity, gas and internet save you money?”
On that page, you’ll find a table that lists providers who allow you to bundle your utilities. You’ll also learn more about their offers, customer ratings, and a lot more. Select the “More info” link to read our individual review or the “Go to site” button (if available) to be safely redirected to your chosen provider’s website.
Cheers,
Rench

Hi Jess,
Thanks for your question.
