The national average is 35.67c per kWh, but prices ranging from around 32c to over 45c per kWh. Between a third and half of power price costs are due to transmission charges. We all rely on electricity in our day-to-day lives. And whether you are watching TV, running a heat pump, or putting on a load of washing – you’re adding to your power bill.
However, depending on where you live in the country, the price can vary between as low as 31.93c per kWh, in Christchurch, to 45.42c per kWh in Kerikeri and 45.45c in Westport. Of course, you can’t do much about where you live, apart from move.
residential costs back to the year ended March 2009 have been revised based on consistent information provided by all electricity retailers. Some retailers have also provided revised data back to the year ended March 2002. This has been incorporated into the residential electricity cost data.
The most recent stats show that, last year, the average Kiwi household used 7084kWh of electricity, at 34.25c per kWh, for a total cost of $2426. This works out to roughly $202 per month. Although most homes use more electricity over winter, and less in summer, due to heating costs.
An electricity retailer may charge a consumer 100 cents/day and 22c/kWh of electricity consumed. 26.6 c/kWh — that is, (2125/8000)x100. If the Retailer offered a 10% prompt payment discount, the final cost to the consumer would be 23.9 c/kWh. The line charge component is calculated in a similar manner (all figures include GST).
The residential electricity cost per unit is derived by dividing the dollar value of residential electricity sales by the number of kilowatt-hours (kWh) sold to residential customers. The survey also reports the 'lines' component of the residential costs. This covers both the distribution and transmission components of the residential costs.

The main objective of the programme is to improve the state of the environment by reducing the production of pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions. . Applications are received by the State Environmental Fund of the Czech Republic before, during or after the completion of the project continuously till. . Depending on the real energy savings, you can save up to 50%of the total eligible expenses (up to 60% if combined with “boiler subsidies” for lower income households). [pdf]
Large projects require space, of course, and there is a common misconception in the Czech Republic that space is one thing the country lacks. This isn’t true. There is plenty of available publicly-owned land that would be suitable for major renewables projects, for example. Up to now, the issue has been a lack of political will, not available land.
The Czech government must make a CfD scheme for larger renewable energy plants – both wind and solar – a central pillar of its strategy to accelerate the energy transition. Targets are important, but they are obviously not the real objective.
The source of funding in the new programming period starting in 2021 is The Next Generation EU Fund, through the National Recovery Plan. The main objective of the programme is to improve the state of the environment by reducing the production of pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions (in particular CO2 emissions).
During the 2014-2021 programming period, 77,000 beneficiaries benefited from its support and were paid a total of 11 billion CZK.
The final NECP increased the target to 22%, but the European Commission still described that as “unambitious”. The draft updated NECP submitted in October proposed a very significant increase, reflecting the fact that the EU’s overall 2030 target had risen to 42.5%.

This works out to cost roughly $197 per month, if the current average kilowatt (kWh) price is 33.74 cents. It’s important to understand that different areas of the country have different rates for electricity. The below table shows some of the average rates around the country. Where is the most expensive place in New Zealand for power?
Canstar Blue reveals the average power bill in New Zealand and what you should be paying for power. Last year, the average Kiwi household used 7084kWh of electricity at 34.25c per kWh, for a total cost of $2426. This works out to roughly $202 per month.

The Ministry monitors national residential electricity costs using information about national electricity sales (essentially total electricity sales divided by the quantity of electricity supplied in kWh). Residential cost data is derived from information obtained primarily from electricity retailers.
It appears that Ashburton and Invercagill are the towns lucky to enjoy the lowest rates in the country. However, our largest cities, Wellington, Christchurch, and even Auckland appear to have lower rates than other smaller towns. It is likely that their denser population and wider spread out of power lines may help keep costs down.
