New research reveals a heartbreaking reality: half of Australians are skipping meals, selling belongings, or even going without medication just to keep their lights on.

With power bills skyrocketing, families like Von’s on the NSW Central Coast are forced to swelter through summer or shiver through winter because air conditioning and heating have become unaffordable luxuries.

This Doesn’t Have to Be Your Story!

At UNified Energy, we believe you deserve affordable, reliable energy.  Generous incentives are currently available for Victorian homeowners to switch from gas heating to an electric HVAC split system.

 

As winter approaches, Victorian households are bracing for another season of high gas bills. With gas prices confirmed to go up from 1st July 2025, many residents are seeking alternatives to traditional gas heating.
