Why are prices changing?

The price change reflects increases in the wholesale cost of gas. In 2022, the Federal Government passed legislation to cap wholesale gas prices. The capped wholesale gas price is reflected in Aurora Energy’s price change, and this has kept Aurora Energy’s prices from being higher than they otherwise would have been.

Although we’re happy to have avoided larger increases, we do acknowledge that any increase may place additional pressure on household and business budgets.
