Bach plan hero

Bach plan

No daily charges, no worries. Power designed for your bach or holiday home, with a fixed two-year term.

Ah, the classic Kiwi bach – long weekends, slow mornings, a place to switch off. Speaking of which, the Bach Plan has no daily charges. You only pay for the power you use when you're there and your rates are fixed, except for the circumstances set out in our Plan Terms

If your main home electricity is with us, it makes sense to throw in your bach too.

Ideal if you

  • Already have a main home energy plan with Meridian
  • Have a bach or second property that isn't used year-round
  • Only want to pay for the power you use, with no daily charges

What you get with our Bach plan

  • No daily charges

    Skip the daily fixed charges and pay only for the power you use when you're there*.

  • Two year term

    On a Fixed Plan, your usage and network-based rates are fixed for the term of your plan, except in the circumstances set out in our Plan Terms.

  • 12c per kWh solar buy-back rate

    Receive 12c/kWh for any solar power you export to the grid.*

Renting out your bach?

If your bach is used a lot, you might be better on a standard residential power plan. If you’re not sure, you can send us an email at hello@meridianenergy.co.nz or give us a call on 0800 496 496.
