From 1 July 2011, the NSW Government implemented changes to the energy rebates available to NSW consumers.

The $145 Energy Rebate was replaced with the $200 Low Income Household rebate. The Government also increased the Medical Energy Rebate to $200 for eligible consumers.

PIAC welcomes these changes and has posted more information on its Energy Assistance page about the rebates and other financial assistance available to NSW electricity consumers.
