I am comparing your plans but don't understand the term 'Controlled Loads'. Please advise.

Hi KGEllis,

Thanks for being part of the AGL Community.

Controlled Load refers to electric hot water usage. This is monitored on a separate meter.

Regards,

Jenna

I have just had a smart meter installed and AGL has removed my controlled load charge for the hot water service. So now I have no off peak charging for hot water. This is a poor way to treat a customer

Control load 2, is this an extra service that can be discontinued if only heating water? Our family has reduced and we are trying to save on extra costs.

I thought All hot water was done with off-peak, or is it all on Controlled load 2?
