Head and all you all lefty socialists
I'm the electricity expert here.
I've told you how to work it out before.
Ca = CP x ACI
Ca is carbon adjustment.
CP is carbon price. So 23 a tonne
ACI is average Cabon intensity. Calculated every day by aemo.
http://www.aemo.com.au/Electricity/Settlements/Carbon-Dioxide-Equivalent-Intensity-Index
So 1 ton of carbon is used to make 1 megawatt hour.
So 23 a megawatt hour or 2.3 cents a kilowatt hour.
So if you pay 5 cents off peak per KEh then equates to 46 % increase if you add the 2.3 cents KWh
You pay 10 cents KWh peak now then increae is 23%
Carbon intensity is around .92 at present but fluctuates but would be 23 x .92.
Most smaller retailers just use 2.3 cents average for carbon tax while the big boys use 23 x .92
It's a disgusting tax and institutionalized insanity.
What's worse is the forward electrify prices. They have gone up 20 % in ONE DAY last week and risen further because of the Carbon tax uncertainty.
So you had a offer for 10 cents last Friday then it's now 12 cents tommorrow.
