Evoenergy charges electricity retailers for using the ACT electricity network. Electricity retailers then set the final price you pay for using electricity (which also includes other costs, like the cost of generating electricity).
Evoenergy’s electricity network tariffs determine how and how much your retailer is charged for your use of the electricity network. For example, the price your retailer pays Evoenergy may be different depending on the time of day you use electricity, or whether you’re a residential or commercial customer.
Evoenergy’s network prices and tariffs are approved by the Australian Energy Regulator (AER).
Electricity network charges
The Australian Energy Regulator approved Evoenergy’s 2025-26 electricity network prices in May 2025. These prices apply from 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2026.
The documents below provide information on the tariffs and charges associated with using the electricity network and the services we provide:
-
*LFiT and network charges
The network charges approved by the AER do not include the costs of the ACT Government’s Large-scale Feed-in Tariff (LFiT) Scheme. In 2025-26 the LFiT costs are an additional 1.59 cents per kilowatt-hour (kWh), which has been added to the consumption charges (cents/kWh) in Evoenergy’s network tariffs.
To provide transparency to stakeholders we’ve published two schedules of network charges for 2025-26. The original network charges approved by the AER can be found here (provided for information only).
Tariff Structure Statement
Evoenergy is required to publish its current Tariff Structure Statement (TSS) which provides detailed information about the network tariffs we charge to electricity retailers. Evoenergy is also required to publish a statement of its tariff classes and the tariffs applicable to each class.
The ACT Government’s Large-scale Feed-in Tariff Scheme (LFiT)
The Large-scale Feed-in Tariff (LFiT) scheme is an ACT Government scheme to achieve the ACT’s target of 100% renewable electricity. Under the scheme, the ACT Government enters into contracts with large renewable generators across eastern and southern Australia. The contracts guarantee generators a fixed price for the electricity they produce.
Evoenergy, as the ACT’s electricity distributor, administers the LFiT scheme and is responsible for managing payments with renewable energy generators participating in the scheme.
How it works:
- If electricity market prices are below the contract price, Evoenergy pays the difference to generators. These funds are recovered from energy retailers through higher electricity network prices.
- If electricity market prices are above the contract price, generators pay the excess to Evoenergy. These funds are returned to energy retailers through lower electricity network prices.
We apply to the ACT Government annually for the necessary costs to pay renewable energy generators and fulfill our obligations under the LFiT scheme. Once approved, these costs are included in our tariffs, which are charged to electricity retailers in the ACT.
Network charges on your electricity bill
Evoenergy's network charges are billed to electricity retailers for using the ACT electricity network.
Evoenergy's network charges are just one part of the total cost you pay for using electricity. Your electricity bill also reflects costs from your energy retailer (including the cost of buying electricity from generators).
Evoenergy's network charges make up around 30% of residential electricity bills in the ACT and include the following costs:
Distribution and transmission costs
This covers the costs of moving electricity from generators along the transmission lines (transmission charges), and then through our local distribution network to your home or business (distribution charges).
The AER determines how much we can charge for using the electricity network and checks our charges each year to make sure they recover the right amount of revenue and are reasonable. We’re focused on ensuring we operate the network efficiently, while keeping these costs as low as possible.
Jurisdictional charges
This covers the costs of jurisdictional obligations including ACT Government taxes, levies, and feed-in tariff schemes.
