Do rural customers pay more for electricity in SA?

With about 10 customers per kilometre of line, South Australia has the lowest ratio of customers to electricity assets of any State.

With a big State to supply, 70% of our poles, wires and substations are used to get electricity to the 30% of our customers who live outside Adelaide.

To ensure fairness, we have postage stamp pricing – which means our rural and remote customers pay the same for energy as our metro customers.
