Automised Energy is an independent Australian energy comparison platform that uses Consumer Data Right (CDR) technology to securely access your actual electricity usage data and match you with your best-fit energy plan. Unlike commission-based comparison sites, it takes no fees from retailers and analyses all available plans to provide unbiased recommendations.
It uses the government-backed CDR to securely access your real electricity usage data directly from your current provider, then calculates your actual costs across all available plans—including complex tariff structures like time-of-use, demand charges, and controlled loads—to find genuine savings based on your consumption patterns, not estimates.
Free to sign up and see your current plan analysis. Users are only charged a fee if a suitable cheaper plan is found and they choose to use the service. The platform takes no commissions from energy retailers.
Currently available to residential electricity consumers in New South Wales (NSW), Victoria (Vic) and the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). Expansion to other Australian states is planned.
Users save an average of 25% on their electricity bills. Individual savings vary—some users have reported savings of over $1,000 per year, with one user finding $2,000 annual savings. The platform has also found hidden plans not publicly advertised on retailer websites.
Yes. It uses actual usage data via CDR (not estimates), takes zero commissions from retailers, continuously monitors your plan for better deals, and handles complex tariff structures that other sites struggle with.
An Australian government initiative giving consumers control over their data. In the energy sector, it allows you to securely share your electricity usage data with accredited services like Automised Energy. Data sharing is secure, encrypted, and you control access.
Matt Peterson, a software engineer with corporate IT and banking background, created it after struggling to find the best energy plan due to tariff complexity.
