Tasmanian households and businesses are set to benefit from a one-off energy bill dividend included in this year’s state budget. This initiative is especially beneficial for caravanning parks and businesses, providing much-needed financial relief.
Key Details:
- Household Relief: All Tasmanian households will receive a $250 cost-of-living dividend automatically credited to their electricity bills.
- Business Relief: Approximately 35,000 small businesses, including many in the caravanning sector, will receive a $300 dividend.
- Automatic Credit: The dividend will be automatically applied to energy accounts starting July 1. No action is required from recipients.
Impact on Caravanning Sector:
For caravanning parks and businesses, the $300 dividend can help reduce operational costs, allowing more investment in services and facilities for guests. This financial relief arrives at a crucial time, easing the burden of rising costs.
Broader Financial Relief:
The state government continues to reinvest Hydro dividends, up to $90 million annually, into essential services. Combined state and federal programs are expected to save the average Tasmanian concession-holder around $1429 on their power bill this financial year.
