Natural gas competition is on fire in Western Australia, as a handful of suppliers battle to be the cheapest with some huge discounts frequently on offer. In fact, WA is known for having some of the country’s biggest gas discounts, which is great for customers chasing a better deal. And considering that discounts are applied to pretty much the same rates across the board (thanks to the regulated price cap), it’s easy to find the best deal.

Considering customers in the west don’t get to choose their electricity provider, Western Australians can at least pick their natural gas supplier. That’s why we’re comparing AGL and Kleenheat based on plans, prices, as well as other incentives that add to their overall value. As these two gas suppliers go toe-to-toe, you’ll be able to see which offers a product best-suited to your personal circumstances.
