The electricity retail company Aurora Energy was formed by the dis-aggregation of the Hydro Electric Commission in Tasmania, Australia, on July 1, 1998. This resulted in the division of the formerly government owned department into three companies - Hydro Tasmania which generates the power, Transend Networks which distributes it across the state, and Aurora Energy, the retail arm, which sells it to customers. This is in anticipation of Tasmania joining the NEM (National Electricity Market), which will open up the market to competitors.
AuroraEnergy Bill Pay allows State Service employees to make advance payments on their AuroraEnergy electricity account by nominating an amount to be deducted directly from their pay each pay period and credited to their AuroraEnergy account (minimum deduction of $15.00 per pay period).
You can commence an AuroraEnergy payroll deduction by completing a payroll deduction authority within your Agency.
AuroraEnergy quarterly statements that show a State Service/Agency authorised payroll deduction option will receive a discount of 5c per day for the statement period, which would be an approximate saving of $4.50 each quarter.
