About us
Who are Australians for Affordable Energy?
We are a non-partisan organisation. We work on what Australian households pay for electricity, and on practical ways to bring that down.
We were co-founded by Dr. Margo Lockhart and Jo Dodds. You can read more about both of them on our about page.
Are you aligned with a political party?
No. We are non-partisan and we do not take a position on which party should be in government.
We take positions on policies that affect what households pay for electricity, and we will say so plainly when we do.
What do you do with my personal information?
We are bound by the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles.
Our privacy policy sets out what we collect, why we collect it, and who we disclose it to.
How do I get in touch?
Email [email protected]. If it is a media enquiry, put MEDIA in the subject line.
Donating
How can I donate?
You can give on our donate page, as a one-off gift or monthly. Every gift helps, big or small.
To pay with Apple Pay, give through our page on Raisely instead. Donations are not tax deductible.
Australians for Affordable Energy was started by Australians who were fed up with unfair and rising energy prices.
If I donate, where does my money go?
Your donation pays for new research, educational content, and our work for energy policy that brings household prices down. We are a for-purpose organisation that is dedicated to our mission of fair energy prices for all Australians.
Australians For Affordable Energy has always been an independent organisation made up of ordinary Aussies, and we want to stay that way.
