Origin is one of the leading energy providers in Australia and, alongside AGL and EnergyAustralia, one of the "Big Three". With over 4.2 million customers across residential, small-business and large-business sectors, it is one of the country's largest retailers. Read on to decide whether Origin is the right fit for your home.
Plans differ by state and billing method. Every retailer must publish a Default Market Offer (the government reference price), and Origin's market offers are set as a discount off that benchmark.

The numbers that decide your Origin Energy bill
Usage rate (c / kWh)
What you pay for every unit of electricity you use. The single biggest driver of your bill if you use a lot of power.
Daily supply charge (c / day)
A fixed fee you pay every day just to be connected, regardless of how much energy you use. It adds up across the year.
Peak vs off-peak
Time-of-use plans charge more at peak times and less off-peak. They suit homes that can shift usage to evenings, nights or weekends.
Live Origin Energy electricity rates pulled from the energy market, last updated 09/10/2026. Figures are in cents, shown as the range across each network for residential and business plans; your exact rate depends on your address, network, meter type and usage. Open each plan's price breakdown for the full per-network detail. Always confirm the plan's Basic Plan Information document and compare against the reference price before signing up.

What customers say about Origin
Broadly positive on service (named, attentive staff) and praised for its end-to-end solar offers; criticised for billing transparency, call transfers, LPG delivery issues and a weak climate record.
Origin serves residential and business customers with electricity and gas in NSW, the ACT, Victoria, Queensland and South Australia, and gas in Western Australia. It does not operate in Tasmania.
Origin Go (fixed rates for 12 months), Flexi Rate ePlus (low variable rates with eBilling), Origin Basic (no-frills standing offer), Home Support & Essentials (with emergency home assistance), and several solar plans with enhanced feed-in tariffs. See the rates page for current pricing.
Solar PV systems and battery storage, plus the Origin Solar Boost and Solar Boost Plus plans with higher feed-in tariffs. You can buy a system outright or via a 24-month interest-free plan with expert installation and maintenance. See the solar page for full details.
Origin scores around 3.8/5 on ProductReview and 4.7/5 on TrustPilot (85% five-star). Customers praise responsive support; some raise concerns about rising rates and solar feed-in tariff reductions. Read our full Origin review.
Call 13 24 61 for electricity and gas sales and service. There are separate lines for moving, solar, LPG, broadband and emergencies — see the contact page. You can also manage your account in My Origin or the app.
Pay online by card, set up direct debit, use BPAY, mail a cheque or pay at Australia Post. Origin also offers EasiPay, a personalised plan that spreads costs evenly with quarterly reviews against your actual usage.
Is Origin the cheapest for your home?
Origin is one option, but not always the cheapest. Compare it against other retailers that supply your address to find the plan that fits how you use energy.
