05 December 2024

The Cook Government will deliver an electricity credit to every Western Australian residence of $400. 

This means that every WA household will receive a $700 Electricity Credit - this includes $300 from the Albanese Labor Government.

Further, an additional energy bill relief will be provided to those most in need, with $734 of support for pensioners and at least $1,086 for eligible families. 

The Household Electricity Credit is a Cook Government initiative funded in the 2024-25 Budget to assist households managing cost of living pressures driven by rising interest rates.

COMMUNITY UPDATE 

Tackling cost of living is our number one priority, and during the December-January billing cycle, community members here in Bateman will once against see energy bill relief in their accounts. 

That's another $350 for every WA household, taking relief to $700 this year. 

Importantly, over the past four years, our WA Labor Government has delivered $2100 in power bill relief to every single WA household.
