How can I get access to the Energy Made Easy plan data?

The plan data in Energy Made Easy is submitted by energy retailers, in accordance with their obligations in the National Energy Retail Law (NERL) and the Australian Energy Regulator's (AER) Retail Pricing Information Guidelines.

Retailer plan data is collected by the AER for the purpose of operating Energy Made Easy, and we make this plan data available to energy consumers seeking to find and compare energy plans using our plan search function.

This data is collected by the AER under information gathering powers in the NERL and as a result, the AER is prevented by law and regulations from releasing or broadly sharing this data.

For this reason, the AER does not provide access to the Energy Made Easy plan data via any file based delivery methods.

However, the AER has developed Consumer Data Right (CDR) specific APIs to share the Energy Made Easy plan data in accordance with the CDR Rules and Data Standards. For more information on these APIs, please refer to https://www.aer.gov.au/energy-product-reference-data.
