We Know Energy Prices Are Rising — Here’s the Truth About Why (and What We’re Doing to Help)

Energy Prices Are Rising

16/09/2025

We get it. Energy prices are rising and it’s frustrating. You’re using the same power, but paying more for it. That doesn’t feel fair.

Let’s break down what’s happening, what we’re doing to help, and how you can take back a bit of control.

The Truth: Why Prices Are Rising

Retailers are tasked with being the messenger. As the company who sends the bill, it’s never fun to tell people that Energy prices are rising. Customers don’t always know what makes up a typical energy bill and how much of it goes to the retailer. 

But here’s the thing: these rising prices don’t mean more margin for the retailer. It may not be your provider “marking things up.” It’s about the cost of delivering energy safely and reliably, across the whole system.

What We’re Doing to Help You Save

At Globird, we know this isn’t easy. So we’re working behind the scenes to help where we can. Any cost we control, we take every step we can to keep it under control. 

We’re looking closely at how our plans are built. We’ve created more flexible energy plans. In this way, you can access the energy plan that works best for you. We’ve also made it easier for customers to interact with us with a new self-serve portal and a new app. Feedback has been fantastic, with more improvements in the pipeline. 

We want to make switching simple too. If you’re looking to switch electricity providers online, we’ve kept the process quick and easy. And yes, some plans come with energy switch incentives to help lighten the load.

What You Can Do to Save

Small changes at home can make a big difference. Try switching off devices at the wall. Use fans instead of the air con when it’s not too hot. Run your dishwasher overnight when energy demand is lower.

You could also consider upgrading to energy-efficient lighting or checking if solar is a good fit for your home.

Our Long-Term Strategy

We’re also thinking ahead. More flexible plans, more efficiency, and better value.

We’re also pushing for fairer rules across the energy industry that lead to lower costs.

In a time when energy prices are rising, it’s more important than ever to plan for long-term solutions that can protect households and businesses alike.

Conclusion

Our goal is simple: to offer affordable electricity plans that are clear, fair, and easy to manage. Whether you’re comparing the best electricity plans Australia has available or looking for the best energy deals that suit your lifestyle, we’re here to help.

Got questions? Want to switch or explore new options?

Reach out today. Let’s find a plan that works for you. No pressure, no stress, and no long-term lock-ins.
