Price matters. So do contract terms, capacity, changing usage and the costs beyond energy.
GAS · FOOD PROCESSING · VICTORIA
A stronger offer, tested against the business.
24.7% lower quoted base commodity rate
Bulk compared April and October offers for the same 2027 supply term, then tested delivery costs, minimum purchases and peak capacity against a possible reduction in gas use.
The October offer modelled $154,127 less annual commodity cost on the same forecast usage, loss allowance and illustrative CPI.
Read the basis
Prepared 8 October 2026. The comparison uses 32,500 metered GJ, an observed loss uplift and 2.5% CPI for both offers. Excludes GST. This is an estimated commodity-cost reduction, not a whole-bill saving. Offers remained subject to CPI, other charges and acceptance. Forecast savings have not been claimed as realised.
ELECTRICITY · COMMERCIAL PROPERTY · WA
A budget that makes room for more solar.
Costs, seasonality and changing grid imports
Bulk reconciled invoice charges and built a seasonal budget covering energy, network, capacity, renewable, market and metering costs. Reduced-import scenarios tested how a proposed solar expansion could affect the supply arrangement.
The retailer confirmed a direction for a bundled offer with no minimum take, with the proposed solar increase not changing applied rates until renewal.
Read the position
At 9 October 2026, budgeting was delivered and the proposed structure confirmed in correspondence. Revised pricing, final agreement and renewable-product confirmation remained outstanding. The solar expansion was not evidenced as installed. This case does not claim a new executed agreement or realised savings.
