The figures below are taken from the Alviss Consulting, 2018 Green Electricity Guide Methodology report and indicate ActewAGL’s scores in the 7 areas that make up the 2018 Green Electricity Guide.

ActewAGL scored an 8 in the fossil fuels criteria due to their strong public position against future investments in fossil fuels. They also received a favourable rating of 7.5 for their transparency due to their comprehensive and accessible energy efficiency products and information available to customers via their website. 

Even with ActewAGL’s solar export prices being lower than the state average and a lower export rate for the offer with the greatest discount, their solar offer is inequitable. Hence, ActewAGL received a score of 2.5 in the renewable energy criteria. 

Their investments in coal power stations and emissions intensity above the NEM average earned them a poor score of 3 for the carbon emissions criteria. Overall, ActewAGL earned a score of 4.9 for how green they are in the 2018 Green Electricity Guide.

In this generation, consumers expect flexibility when it comes to their utilities. ActewAGL understands this and offers various billing and payment options to suit their customer’s flexibility. Let’s look at ActewAGL’s billing and payment options.

With most of their electricity plans, customers can opt to receive their bills in the form of e-bills via email or paper bills through the post so that you won’t get caught out with a late outstanding bill.

Nowadays, customers want the utmost flexibility when it comes to settling outstanding bills. ActewAGL has various flexible payment options to suit your lifestyle. By logging into your account through their website, you can pay off your outstanding electricity bill or make a one-off payment.

Customers can choose to pay via ActewAGL’s EvenPay option, whereby the cost of their yearly electricity and gas bills are split up into even direct debit payments so that you’re paying the same price for every bill. 

Customers can also pay via ActewAGL’s FullPay option, whereby the total amount of their electricity bill gets deducted via direct debit on the due date of your bill. BPay and using your credit card to pay via phone are other methods of payment ActewAGL accepts. 

Customers that wish to pay their energy bills through the mail can simply do so by posting a cheque with the payment slip. Customers can also pay in person at an Australian Post Office and through CentrePay. Centrepay is a payment method where customers pay off a bill via a regular amount deducted from their Centrelink payment. 

Customers can choose between a monthly or quarterly billing frequency to suit their flexibility.
