How Business Carbon Neutral works:
1. Carbon emissions are created from your business premises' electricity use.
2. We offset those emissions through carbon offset units from climate action projects.
3. The result? Carbon neutral electricity, positive environmental and community benefits.
Our carbon offsets come from accredited climate action projects in Australia and around the world. Many of these projects provide economic, social and environmental benefits to communities, in addition to offsetting carbon emissions.
Business Carbon Neutral Flexi plan and your electricity bill
Electricity business bills are made up of daily supply and energy usage charges. With Business Carbon Neutral Flexi these charges are variable and we'll let you know in advance before your market energy charges change. The market contract energy rates may change in or around January or July. *Please keep this in mind when choosing a variable rate plan. Any other fees and charges (incl. solar feed-in tariffs and GreenPower) may also vary. If you’re a solar customer, you’re eligible for the applicable solar feed-in tariff rates, which can change during your variable rate period. There are no exit fees with our Business Carbon Neutral Flexi plan
