Gas vs. Electricity Bills (Residential) - Victoria
Comparison between Gas ducted system and Reverse cycle air con system
We can show below comparison in a matured manner
| Energy Type | Average Annual Usage | Average Annual Cost (2023-24) |
|---|---|---|
| Gas | 44,000 MJ (Medium home) | AUD $1,400 - $1,600 |
| Electricity | 4,000 kWh (Medium home) | AUD $1,000 - $1,200 |
| All-Electric | 6,000 kWh (Heating, etc.) | AUD $1,500 - $1,800 |
- Gas Bills: Gas usage for heating, hot water, and cooking in a typical medium-sized Victorian home ranges from 44,000 MJ annually. Households used to spend approximately $1,300 to $1,500 per year on gas.
- Electricity Bills: For households that rely solely on electricity (including electric heating), annual electricity usage can be higher, leading to bills between $1,500 and $1,800. However, for electricity-only homes without gas, this includes costs for heating, cooking, and appliances.
- Cost Trends: Gas costs have been increasing over recent years, with electricity becoming a more attractive option for many due to solar incentives and energy-efficient electric appliances like heat pumps and reverse cycle air conditioners.
Bill Breakdown
- The average cost of energy depends on factors such as household size, the efficiency of appliances, and the energy tariff. Households that switch from gas to electric may see similar total energy costs, but electricity can be cheaper in the long run with efficient appliances and solar integration.
These figures are estimates, and individual bills may vary. For a detailed breakdown of your expected costs, it is advisable to check specific tariffs from your energy provider.
