Kogan falls somewhere in the middle for its prices. Electricity prices are lowest in Victoria, and highest in South Australia. In terms of gas prices, Victoria has the highest while New South Wales has the lowest.
However, there are no lock-in contracts with Kogan Energy plans, so you're able to switch whenever you want to.
Kogan doesn't have much in the way of benefits apart from an app with features like bill tracking and usage estimates.
Kogan Energy sells power in NSW, VIC, QLD and SA, plus gas in NSW and VIC. It's partnered with Powershop, a subsidiary of Meridian Energy, Australasia's largest renewables generator.

Victorian residents can get both their power and gas from Kogan, but you won't get any particular discount on your bills for bundling.
Kogan doesn't support solar installation, but its plans include solar feed-in tariffs for customers.
Kogan's feed-in tariffs are very low across the board, about as close to minimum as is legal in most states. We've compared them to benchmarks state-by-state so you can see how they measure up.
While Kogan Energy is partnered with a subsidiary of Meridian Energy – the largest generator of renewable power in Australasia – Kogan itself has no green practices or features.
Kogan has no GreenPower certified plans, which means you can't pay extra to guarantee that some of your power comes from renewable sources. In addition, it has zero incentives for solar customers, and pays only minimal feed-in tariffs.
We don't have enough data on Kogan Energy's customer service to give them a rating.
It also wasn't included in the 2019–2020 market report from the Australian Energy Regulator that reviewed customer support for many energy providers.
Kogan Energy only has a couple of options for getting in touch, and are only available on weekdays:
You can also check the Kogan Energy app for usage information, estimates and bills.
