CHOICE Expert Rating on ReAmped Energy
CHOICE verdict on ReAmped Energy
Environmental
- ReAmped is certified carbon neutral and climate active.
- It offers competitive solar feed-in tariffs and solar plans for customers, and also has active support for household solar.
- It supports a Savanna Burning project in the Tiwi Islands.
- Though it's largely committed to ending coal use by 2030, ReAmped still buys some energy from the open market, where coal dominates.
- While ReAmped supports a wind power project in China with credits stapled with an Australian vegetation offset from Bendigo, Victoria, it hasn't invested in local renewables generation.
Customer service
- 342 (1.9%) of ReAmped's customers lodged complaints against the company in 2021–22.
- No calls made to ReAmped were answered within 30 seconds, according to the AER data.
- We found there were zero dropped calls by the customer - we suspect that this has to do with ReAmped not taking any additional customers during a period in 2022 in the energy price rise, and still have not started accepting any as of this articles date.
