Cross-agency rule joining welfare payment data + smart-meter consumption to flag at-risk households. Proactively offers rebates, hardship plans and efficiency retrofits without requiring application.
NSW already has FuelCheck. Make it national, real-time, and include LPG and EV charging.
Single-page energy bill comparison
A government-run, no-commission energy comparison tool (like Energy Made Easy but simpler). Answer 3 questions, get the cheapest plan. Not 47 plans with asterisks.
No-fee bill smoothing as default
Require energy and water retailers to offer monthly even-payment plans as the default (opt-out), not hidden in settings. Prevents bill shock.
