Energy disconnections

The St Vincent de Paul Society and Alviss Consulting have prepared reports on electricity disconnections in the east coast of Australia. We acknowledge the funding provided by Energy Consumers Australia to undertake this work.

The report uses geospatial analysis on electricity disconnections to explore when and why they occur based on the socio-economic indicators that characterise these areas.

It is also important to consider what electricity disconnections for non-payment actually mean in a broader context.
