Who is People Energy

People Energy is a small energy retailer in Victoria. The company previously offered electricity services in New South Wales, Queensland and South Australia, and may still have existing customers in these states. However, the company now only accepts new residential and business customers in Victoria.

Residential customers can take advantage of a price matching offer if they receive a more competitive comparable offer from another provider. If People can't match or beat the offer, any termination fees will be waived. However, the provider also states that residential plans have no lock-in contracts and no early termination fees, so you are free to switch providers even without the price matching offer.

Both residential and business customers can choose from paper or electronic billing options.

A quick review of People Energy

Pros

  • No lock-in contracts, no early termination fees and offers several payment options.

Cons

  • There is no solar panel installation or GreenPower plans.
  • Its website doesn't have a lot of information about what's offered, so carefully read any contract before signing up.

What plans are offered by People?

Solar panel

Does People offer solar?

While it doesn't offer solar-specific plans, the retailer does give solar rebates to customers who already have solar panel systems installed. Your solar rebates will depend on your location and your tariff type.

If you are a new solar customer, you'll have to arrange solar panel installation before you can receive a rebate through People Energy.

Green energy

How green is People Energy?

No, People Energy isn't GreenPower accredited.

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.
