What we found
Powershop may suit households that want an app-first retailer and are comfortable comparing promotional electricity offers. EV owners may want to review its EV plan structure carefully.
Powershop, part of Shell Energy Australia, states on its public site that it sells energy to homes in Victoria, New South Wales, South East Queensland and South Australia. Public offer pages reviewed in May 2026 highlight electricity plans, EV-focused offers and app-led account management, while gas is only available in some areas of Victoria and New South Wales. Availability depends on postcode, distributor and meter setup.
Strengths
- Clearly states home electricity coverage across VIC, NSW, South East QLD and SA.
- Promotes EV-focused offers and app-led usage visibility.
- Gas is available in some VIC and NSW areas for dual-fuel shoppers.
Watch-outs
- Gas availability is narrower than electricity availability.
- Offer mechanics, credits and plan refreshes can change over time.
- Some benefits depend on smart meter or specific tariff eligibility.
