2025-26 Standing Offer Prices

Regulated price increase 

The independent Tasmanian Economic Regulator sets maximum prices annually for Standing Offer rates offered by Aurora Energy. The Standing Offer rates which apply to Aurora Energy Residential and Small Business customers will increase from 1 July 2025 by an average of 2.06%. 

This increase is primarily driven by an uplift in network prices under TasNetworks' 2025-26 Pricing Proposal and offset by a reduction in the regulated wholesale and renewable energy costs.

Energy costs are made up of the generation of electricity, market fees and charges, network costs and the cost of providing retail services. 


Although the price increase is minimal, we understand the difficulty that many Tasmanian households are facing. There is support available.
