Energex recently replaced my water meter, guess it’s for these changes/tracking?
Though consistently when I got to electricity prices in SE QLD, Energex is always the lowest for me.

Electricity prices are changing
On 1 July 2022 your electricity prices will rise.
To see what’s changed, over the page we’ve listed what you pay now, as well as your new charges. You’ll also find your new charges on your first bill after 1 July 2022.
Reason for the change
Among other factors, our overall costs to buy and generate electricity have gone up in the last few months. Global rises in the price of coal and natural gas and unplanned power plant outages have had a big impact.
What this means for you
From 1 July 2022 your plan will be 7% off the 1 July 2022 reference price. For an average household in the Energex network using 6,300 kwh/year, the estimated annual cost of this plan is $1,831.00. Note that bills vary with usage.
Other things you need to know
If you have a Solar PV system installed at your premises, on 1 July 2022 the QLD solar meter charge will change from 6.7 to 8.526 cents per day (incl GST). This charge is a pass-through from your distributor and may vary from time to time.
