On Sunday the Government announced a new platform, Open Electricity, to compare power plans.

A Beehive press release claims that approximately two million households and 165,000 small business customers will benefit.

Energy minister Simon Watts chats to Andrew Dickens about the new platform and a focus on increased transparency for consumers across industries. 

"We think the average household's probably going to save about $360 a year," he said.
