Australian businesses are about to be hit hard, with the Australian Energy Regulator (AER) approving electricity price hikes of up to 8.4% from 1 July 2025.

"Business troubles are likely to deepen following the (Australian) Energy Regulator's decision to approve electricity price rises of up to 8.4% for business from July 1st 2025." – The Weekend Australian, 15 March 2025.

⚡ This is NOT a small increase. Businesses across Australia will see higher operating costs, with no relief in sight.

And it gets worse…
