Question On Notice No. 933 asked in the Legislative Council on 21 September 2022 by Hon Dr Steve Thomas

Question Directed to the: Parliamentary Secretary representing the Minister for Energy
Parliament: 41 Session: 1


Question

I refer to Western Power's supply allocation of 32 Amps for single phase rural residential properties in Western Australia versus 63 Amps for cities and towns in Western Australia, and I ask how much electricity do regional consumers of energy use compared to their metropolitan counterparts?

Answered on 15 November 2022

Western Power advises the following daily average electricity consumption for the 2022 Financial Year.  

 

 

Average daily consumption (kWh)

Metro

12.11

Regional

12.65

 

It is important to note that these figures are averages and that individual electricity consumption will vary between customers in both metropolitan and regional areas.
