Customer debt
In FY25, the average debt across mass market customers increased by 1.5%, remaining steady compared to the previous financial year. This is largely attributed to the impact of various government funding initiatives, which played a significant role in easing overall customer debt levels.
Debt for customers on Staying Connected increased by 16% in FY25, as the vast majority of customers on the program are on repayment plans at a rate less than their monthly consumption. This is largely attributed to broader economic challenges, which have prompted more customers to reach out for support in managing their energy arrears.
$76 million in direct financial support, including debt relief and payment matching, was provided to customers through AGL's two-year Customer Support Package. Of this, $56 million was delivered in FY24 and $20 million in FY25.
Staying Connected is AGL's program for energy customers who have been identified as being in financial hardship. |
The average energy debt represents the outstanding debt at the customer (rather than account) level asĀ of 30 June in the relevant reporting year. |
Debt levels include GST. |
Data excludes Unknown Consumers and Commercial & Industrial (C&I) customers. An Unknown Customer is a person/s consuming energy at the property without a registered AGL account. |
The average energy debt of all AGL customers includes all AGL's energy customers, not just those with debt. |
From FY23 onwards the average energy debt of all AGL customers does not include clearing restricted debt (where bill has been issued but invoice has not been presented to customers). |
