Cheapest Electricity Plans in Singapore (September 2026): Keppel Publishes Rates Again and Turns 29.40¢/kWh Into a Four-Way Tie

We re-read every retailer's own price-plan page, EMA fact sheet and promo T&C PDF on 5 September 2026, and the biggest change is a retailer we could not price at all a week ago. Keppel Electric's residential rate card is live again: FIXED36 at 29.40¢/kWh joins PacificLight, Senoko and Tuas in a four-way tie for the cheapest long contract, and FIXED24 at 29.80¢ comes with a $125 rebate (NEW125) for the first 1,000 sign-ups. Every 31 August deadline we flagged has passed and the codes behind them are dead. Tuas replaced ONSGDAY26 with ONLINE, which pays $160 on PowerFIX 36 rather than $200, to 11 October and capped at the first 500. Geneco retired POWER200, POWER100 and POWER15 for GENECO200, GENECO100 and GENECO15, and is running a four-day SP-customer special, GENECO270 for $270, that closes on 6 September. Senoko's PRISM+ mini fridge is now FULLY REDEEMED, but a 2-piece Samsonite Oc2lite set worth $680 has taken its place on the 36-month plan. PacificLight has not moved a single rate or code since 20 August. SP's tariff holds at 34.78¢/kWh to 30 September.

No published rate has moved since 26 August. The promotions have, and Keppel Electric is back with a rate card.

> Quick view: four plans now tie for cheapest at 29.40¢/kWh against SP's 34.78¢. The perks decide it: $250 from PacificLight's ATE36, or a $680 Samsonite set from Senoko. Geneco's $270 GENECO270 ends 6 Sep.

PacificLight: Nothing Has Moved Since 20 August, and ATE36 Still Pays the Most Cash on a 29.40¢ Long Contract

PacificLight: Nothing Has Moved Since 20 August, and ATE36 Still Pays the Most Cash on a 29.40¢ Long Contract

Still the widest plan menu in the market, and now the steadiest. PacificLight repriced on 20 August and has not touched a rate or a promo code since; every plan on its own price-plan JSON on 5 September matches what we published a fortnight ago. Savvy Saver 36 is 29.40¢/kWh, which since Keppel republished its rate card is a four-way tie rather than a three-way one. Savvy Saver 24 is 29.80¢, level with Senoko LifePower24, Tuas PowerFIX 24, Geneco Get It Fixed 24 and Keppel FIXED24. Savvy Saver 12 is 31.00¢ and Sunny Side-Up 12, the green plan, is 31.50¢. Save While Sleeping 24 is 34.50¢ during the day (7am to 11pm) and 22.50¢ overnight (11pm to 7am). Stack It Up 24 is volume-banded rather than time-of-use, charging 30.00¢ on the first 300 kWh, 29.40¢ from 301 to 600 kWh and 28.00¢ above that. The trap on this menu is unchanged and still the most useful thing to know about PacificLight. Easy Peasy is 26.00¢/kWh with no contract, which is the lowest published rate in Singapore, but the fact sheet adds a daily charge of 55¢, roughly $16.70 a month, so on 400 kWh a month the effective rate is 30.19¢. That is more than the 29.40¢ tie, so Easy Peasy only wins above about 490 kWh a month. Easy Save is 18% off tariff (about 28.52¢) plus the same 55¢ a day, and 9 To 9 is 38.00¢ from 9am to 9pm, 18.50¢ from 9pm to 9am, plus $1.01 a day. Classic 60 is 3% off the tariff with a further 5% prompt-payment discount, so the advertised 8% only holds if you never pay late. On promos, ATE 2026 runs to 30 September and pays $200 with ATE24, $250 with ATE36 or $380 with ATE60, each limited to the first 100 sign-ups, with $20 more for a referral code, which is where the advertised up to $400 comes from. Maybank cardholders get $200 with MBBON200 on 36 months, $140 with MBBON140 on 24, or $10 with MBBON12 on 12, first 40 per code, to 30 September; renewing customers who set up Maybank recurring payment and register get $20. yuu members get 15,000 points and $50 with YUU36 or 10,000 points and $50 with YUU24, first 500, to 26 October, and every yuu-code sign-up before 27 October is entered in a draw for two prizes of 100,000 points. KrisFlyer collectors can use KFLYER36. Existing customers who set up recurring payment with a UOB card get $20. Referrals pay $30 to you and $20 to your friend. Easy Peasy and Easy Save accept no promo or referral codes at all. BEST FOR: high-usage households, who should take Easy Peasy above roughly 490 kWh a month, and anyone who wants the biggest cash rebate on a 29.40¢ long contract, since ATE36 pays $250 where Tuas now pays $160 and Keppel pays $100.

No rate or code has changed since 20 Aug 2026, re-checked on 5 Sep: Savvy Saver 36 at 29.40¢/kWh (now a four-way tie with Senoko, Tuas and Keppel), Savvy Saver 24 at 29.80¢, Savvy Saver 12 at 31.00¢, Sunny Side-Up 12 at 31.50¢. Save While Sleeping is 22.50¢ off-peak (11pm-7am) against 34.50¢ peak, and Stack It Up prices in volume bands of 30.00¢ / 29.40¢ / 28.00¢. Easy Peasy lists 26.00¢ with no contract but adds a 55¢/day charge (about $16.70 a month), making it 30.19¢ effective on 400 kWh and worth taking only above about 490 kWh a month; Easy Save adds the same 55¢/day and 9 To 9 adds $1.01/day. ATE 2026 pays $200 (ATE24), $250 (ATE36) or $380 (ATE60) to the first 100 sign-ups each, 20 Aug to 30 Sep 2026, plus $20 with a referral code, which is the advertised up to $400. Also live: MBBON200 / MBBON140 / MBBON12 for Maybank cards (first 40 each, to 30 Sep) and $20 for renewing customers on Maybank recurring payment; YUU36 / YUU24 for 15,000 or 10,000 yuu points plus $50 (first 500, to 26 Oct) with entry to a 2 x 100,000-point draw closing 27 Oct; KFLYER36 for KrisFlyer miles; and $20 for existing customers on UOB recurring payment. Referral $30 for you / $20 for your friend. Easy Peasy and Easy Save accept no codes

Senoko Energy: Rates Held Again, the PRISM+ Fridge Is Gone, and a $680 Samsonite Set Has Replaced It

The rate-plus-freebie play, and this time the freebie half got a genuine upgrade. Senoko has not moved a rate since the early-August rise: on 5 September its own price-plan page still shows LifePower36 at 29.40¢/kWh, LifePower24 at 29.80¢ and LifePower12 at 31.00¢, with LifeGreen24 at 30.18¢, LifeSteady24 and LifeSteady36 at 1.64¢ off the tariff (about 33.14¢ today) and LifeSavvy24 at 20.05¢ off-peak from 11pm to 7am against 36.95¢ the rest of the day. LifeSavvy24 is still the cheapest overnight rate in this roundup that comes with no daily charge attached, which matters if you run laundry, dishwashing or EV charging after midnight. The gift board is where everything changed. The $339 PRISM+ PureFresh 50L mini fridge we named as the best gift left on 26 August is now FULLY REDEEMED, joining the $408 Ninja Foodi AirGrill, the $359 Xiaomi Robot Vacuum, the $320 Samsonite Red spinner and the $339 TTRacing standing desk. Five of Senoko's gifts have now sold out inside six weeks, which tells you how fast you have to move once one is listed. Two new ones have appeared to replace them, and the headline is much bigger than anything it has run this quarter: a 2-piece Samsonite Oc2lite spinner luggage set, 55cm and 68cm, worth $680, plus a $30 bill rebate, on any 36-month plan with recurring payment set up on a Trust card, code TBBCSB30, limited to the first 600 sign-ups or renewals. Stack a referral code on top as a new customer and the package Senoko advertises is worth up to $730, which is comfortably the largest sign-up value on any 29.40¢ contract right now. The second new gift is a TTRacing Duo V4 gaming chair worth $259 on a 24-month plan, code GIROBCRC, first 400. The rest of the gift menu still runs on GIRO: a $218 SMEG KLF05 kettle (GIROFCSKB, 36-month, first 260), a $208 Shark S1000 steam mop (GIROFBSSM, 24-month), a $199 Doobsta' bean bag (GIROFCDBG) and a $149 La Gourmet multi-cooker (GIROFCLC). If you would rather have cash, Maybank cardholders now get up to $200 rather than the $150 we reported, using MBFC180 on 36 months, MBFC130 on 24 or MBFC20 on 12. Tiger BOSS debit cards pay up to $170 (TGBGN150, TGBGN130), GIRO alone pays up to $170 (GIROFB150, GIROFB100, GIROFB30), Novowatt customers get up to $220 as $120 in rebates plus $100 of EV charging credit (NVX200), and if you cannot set up recurring payment at all there is still up to $80 (FB60, FB10). Referrals pay $20 each way. Every gift is redeemed after your third bill, so this is a slow reward, not an instant one. BEST FOR: anyone signing a 36-month contract at 29.40¢ who would rather have $680 of luggage than $250 in cash, and overnight-heavy households, who should compare LifeSavvy24 against PacificLight's 9 To 9 before deciding.

Rates unchanged on 5 Sep 2026: LifePower36 29.40¢/kWh (joint-cheapest long contract, now four-way with PacificLight, Tuas and Keppel), LifePower24 29.80¢, LifePower12 31.00¢, LifeGreen24 30.18¢, LifeSteady24/36 at 1.64¢ off tariff (about 33.14¢), LifeSavvy24 at 20.05¢ off-peak 11pm-7am against 36.95¢ peak. Gift board turned over: the $339 PRISM+ PureFresh mini fridge (GIROFCPBF) is now FULLY REDEEMED alongside the $408 Ninja Foodi AirGrill, $359 Xiaomi Robot Vacuum, $320 Samsonite Red spinner and $339 TTRacing standing desk. New and biggest: a 2-piece Samsonite Oc2lite spinner set (55cm + 68cm) worth $680 plus a $30 rebate with a Trust card on any 36-month plan (TBBCSB30, first 600), which Senoko advertises as up to $730 once a referral is stacked. Also new: a $259 TTRacing Duo V4 gaming chair on 24 months (GIROBCRC, first 400). Still available on GIRO: $218 SMEG KLF05 kettle (GIROFCSKB, first 260), $208 Shark S1000 steam mop (GIROFBSSM), $199 Doobsta' bean bag (GIROFCDBG), $149 La Gourmet multi-cooker (GIROFCLC). Cash instead: up to $200 Maybank (MBFC180/MBFC130/MBFC20), $170 Tiger BOSS (TGBGN150/TGBGN130), $170 GIRO (GIROFB150/GIROFB100/GIROFB30), $220 Novowatt (NVX200), $80 without recurring payment (FB60/FB10). Referral $20 each way. Gifts are redeemed after your third bill

Tuas Power Supply: Rates Still Frozen Since July, but the $200 Code Is Gone and the Replacement Pays $160

The steadiest rate card here, attached to the promo page that just got worse. Tuas raised its rates in the first week of August and has not touched one since: on 5 September, PowerFIX 36 is 29.40¢/kWh, PowerFIX 24 is 29.80¢, PowerFIX 12 is 31.00¢, the green PowerFIX 25 G+ is 32.70¢ and PowerDOT 6 is 10% off the tariff, about 31.30¢ today. There is no daily charge on any Tuas plan, which is worth saying out loud when PacificLight's cheapest headline rate carries one. Every plan also includes 12 months of free Singlife cover, and you pick Home, Travel or Personal Accident. The promo side has been rebuilt for September and the headline number went backwards. ONSGDAY26, which paid $200 as a bill rebate or grocery e-voucher on PowerFIX 36 and $120 on PowerFIX 24, expired on 31 August. The replacement is ONLINE, which runs from 1 September to 11 October, and its T&C PDF is explicit about what you get and how many can get it: $160 on PowerFIX 36 and $100 on PowerFIX 24, new residential customers only, and only the first 500 who successfully transfer. That is $40 less than August on the long contract and $20 less on the 24-month, and it puts Tuas third for cash behind PacificLight's ATE36 at $250 and Geneco's September codes. Read the fine print on the rate too: the rebate lands on your second or third bill depending on your SP billing cycle, and changing your plan or code within three days of the transfer costs a $10.90 administration fee. ONGREEN still pays $100 on the green PowerFIX 25 G+ and now runs to 11 October rather than 31 August, and PRUOB, up to 4.33% cashback for UOB cardholders on SP utilities bills, has moved to the same date. The genuinely new offer is PRPL26, which gives a free StarHub Premier+ Annual Pass worth $380 to anyone signing the green PowerFIX 25 G+ by 30 September, limited to the first 180 sign-ups, with the redemption code emailed 14 days after your contract starts. That is 12 months of Premier League football on StarHub TV+ against a rate 3.30¢ above PowerFIX 36, which on 400 kWh a month costs about $158 a year in extra electricity, so it is worth taking only if you would otherwise have paid for the football. Referrals pay $20, though Tuas states the rebate is revised when a referral is combined with another promotion. The early-termination charge on PowerFIX 36 is a flat $200 with no GST, and contracts auto-renew below the prevailing tariff with 18 business days' notice. BEST FOR: anyone who wants a 29.40¢ contract with no daily charge, no gift to chase and no membership to hold, and Premier League watchers, who should price PRPL26 against a StarHub subscription rather than against the other electricity deals.

Every rate unchanged on 5 Sep 2026: PowerFIX 36 at 29.40¢/kWh (joint-cheapest long contract), PowerFIX 24 at 29.80¢, PowerFIX 12 at 31.00¢, green PowerFIX 25 G+ at 32.70¢, PowerDOT 6 at 10% off tariff (about 31.30¢). No daily charge on any plan. The codes have rotated: ONSGDAY26 expired 31 Aug and the replacement is ONLINE, which pays $160 on PowerFIX 36 or $100 on PowerFIX 24, runs 1 Sep to 11 Oct 2026, is new-customers-only and is capped at the first 500 successful transfers. ONGREEN still pays $100 on the green plan and PRUOB still gives UOB cardholders up to 4.33% cashback on SP utilities bills, both now to 11 Oct. New: PRPL26 gives a free StarHub Premier+ Annual Pass worth $380 on PowerFIX 25 G+ to the first 180 sign-ups, by 30 Sep 2026, with the redemption code emailed 14 days after your contract start. All plans include 12 months of free Singlife cover (Home, Travel or Personal Accident). Referral $20, though Tuas revises the rebate when a referral is combined with another promotion. Rebates land on your second or third bill, and changing plan or code within 3 days of transfer costs $10.90. Early-termination charge on PowerFIX 36 is $200 (no GST); contracts auto-renew below the prevailing tariff with 18 business days' notice

Geneco: Every POWER Code Is Dead, and a Four-Day SP-Only Special Pays $270 Until 6 September

The rebate specialist, and still the retailer whose promotions page changes fastest. The rates did not move: on 5 September, Get It Fixed 24 is 29.80¢/kWh, Get It Fixed 12 and the six-month Give Us A Try are both 31.00¢, and Get It 7 To 7 is 27.90¢ from 7pm to 7am against 32.50¢ from 7am to 7pm. Everything else on this entry has changed. The three POWER codes we listed in August are gone. POWER200, POWER100 and POWER15 have been replaced by GENECO200, GENECO100 and GENECO15, and the terms have tightened in a way worth reading before you assume you qualify. GENECO200 pays $200 on Get It Fixed 24 for the whole of September, but its own T&C PDF requires you to be an SP Group customer with an existing electricity account before you switch, so anyone moving between open-market retailers gets GENECO100 and $100 instead. GENECO15 pays $15 on Get It Fixed 12 and runs to 31 October. Existing customers renewing get RENEW30 on Get It Fixed 24 or Get It 7 To 7, or RENEW15 on Get It Fixed 12. Running on top of all that, and closing first, is a four-day online special: GENECO270 pays $270 on Get It Fixed 24, again SP customers only, from 3 to 6 September 2026 inclusive. Stack the $20 referral and up to $35 in card rebates and Geneco advertises the package as up to $325, which is the largest single sign-up rebate on any electricity plan in Singapore this week. It is on a 29.80¢ plan rather than a 29.40¢ one, so on 400 kWh a month you give up about $19 a year in rate to gain $70 more in cash than GENECO200 pays, which is worth it over a 24-month term but only if you sign before Saturday. Two offers we reported as back in late August have disappeared again: the Win 1 Year FREE Electricity draw worth $1,650 and the anniversary Power Eco offer of 8 months free are both off Geneco's live pages, along with the Jolly Savings $20 eCapitaVoucher. The sign-up cap has changed shape too. Get It Fixed 24 no longer says first 3,100 sign-ups on its plan card; it now reads limited sign-ups with no number, which is less useful, not more. One more thing worth knowing: Get It 7 To 7's own plan card states that promotion and referral codes are not applicable, so the cheapest off-peak rate here comes with no rebate at all. Card rebates still stack on the fixed plans, up to $35 with Maybank, up to $30 with Tiger BOSS, $20 with Citi and 3% cashback with OCBC 365. Geneco charges no monthly admin fee and no transmission loss charge, and it is the only retailer here that publishes a price-match guarantee. BEST FOR: SP Group customers who can sign before 6 September and want the biggest cash rebate available anywhere, and anyone who has never switched, since both of Geneco's better codes are closed to people already on an open-market retailer.

Rates unchanged on 5 Sep 2026: Get It Fixed 24 at 29.80¢/kWh, Get It Fixed 12 and the 6-month Give Us A Try both 31.00¢, Get It 7 To 7 at 27.90¢/kWh from 7pm-7am against 32.50¢ from 7am-7pm. Every POWER code is dead. CORRECTION, re-read off Geneco's own plan cards on 7 Sep 2026: there is no GENECO200. The live set is GENECO270 ($270 bill rebate on Get It Fixed 24, SP Group customers only), GENECO100 ($100 on the same plan for everyone else) and GENECO15 ($15 on Get It Fixed 12, limited sign-ups). Give Us A Try and Get It 7 To 7 take no promotion or referral code at all. Renewals use RENEW30 (Get It Fixed 24 or Get It 7 To 7) or RENEW15 (Get It Fixed 12). On the banner date: GENECO270 was sold as a 3 to 6 Sep 2026 online special, but on 7 Sep the code is still printed on the Get It Fixed 24 plan card while the banner above it still reads 3-6 SEP, so the rebate is live-but-unstable and worth grabbing rather than planning around. With a $20 referral and up to $35 in card rebates is the advertised up to $325. Gone again: the $1,650 free-electricity draw, the 8-months-free Power Eco anniversary offer and the Jolly Savings $20 eCapitaVoucher. The Get It Fixed 24 plan card no longer states the 3,100 sign-up cap, only limited sign-ups. Get It 7 To 7 takes no promotion or referral code at all, per its own plan card. Card rebates stack on the fixed plans: up to $35 Maybank, up to $30 Tiger BOSS, $20 Citi, 3% cashback with OCBC 365. No monthly admin fee and no transmission loss charge, and Geneco is the only retailer here with a published price-match guarantee

Keppel Electric: The Rate Card Is Back, and FIXED36 at 29.40¢/kWh Makes the Cheapest Long Contract a Four-Way Tie

The retailer we could not price for a month is back, and it arrived at the top of the table. Through August, Keppel Electric's residential price-plan and promotions pages both rendered navigation, a heading and nothing else, so we listed it as unrankable and told readers to call. On 5 September both pages carry a full rate card again, and the numbers are competitive rather than a placeholder. FIXED36 is 29.40¢/kWh with GST (26.97¢ before GST) over 36 months, which is exactly level with PacificLight Savvy Saver 36, Senoko LifePower36 and Tuas PowerFIX 36, so the cheapest long contract in Singapore is now a four-way tie. FIXED24 is 29.80¢ (27.34¢ before GST), level with the other four 24-month plans. FIXED12 is 34.77¢, which is one hundredth of a cent below SP's regulated tariff and therefore not worth signing a year for. Two plans are more interesting than the fixed ones. SURESAVE DOT, the no-contract plan whose 15%-off description vanished from Keppel's site on 5 August, is back at 12% off the regulated tariff, guaranteed for 24 months with no lock-in and no early-termination charge. It carries two restrictions worth knowing: it is open only to customers switching directly from SP Group, and the contract must start on or after 1 October 2026, so it will track the Q4 tariff rather than today's 34.78¢. On the current tariff 12% off works out to about 30.61¢, which is below every discount-off-tariff plan any other retailer sells and about $200 a year cheaper than staying on SP, though still a shade above the 29.40¢ fixed contracts. The second is Weekend Saver, a 24-month time-of-use plan at 27.90¢/kWh all day every weekend and from 9pm to 9am on weekdays, against a steep 39.90¢ on weekdays from 9am to 9pm. Its off-peak window is the widest in this roundup, because it covers the whole weekend rather than only overnight, but the peak rate is the highest, so it only pays if the house is genuinely empty on weekday afternoons. It also needs a smart meter, and Keppel charges $43.60 with GST to install one if you do not have it. ecoGreen24, the renewable plan, is 38.80¢ and is dearer than doing nothing. On rebates, NEW125 pays a one-time $125 on FIXED24 and is limited to the first 1,000 new customers; NEW100 pays $100 on FIXED36 or on ecoGreen24, also capped at the first 1,000 on the green plan. Setting up recurring payment with a Maybank card adds $20 on a 24 or 36-month plan or $10 on 12 months, for the first 125 sign-ups or renewals, from 1 July to 30 September 2026, with the first Maybank transaction due by 30 November and the rebate paid by 31 December. GIRO adds $10 instead, and the form has to be printed and posted, which is the one genuinely dated step in this roundup. Note that a security deposit applies to all new Keppel sign-ups from 1 October 2025 onwards, and that none of these offers are open to recontracts or relocations. BEST FOR: anyone signing a 24-month plan, since $125 plus $20 is the best rebate on a 29.80¢ contract outside Geneco's SP-only codes, and households that are out all weekday afternoon and want a weekend-wide off-peak rate.

The rate card is published again as at 5 Sep 2026, after a month with no plan content at all. FIXED36 is 29.40¢/kWh with GST (26.97¢ before GST) over 36 months, joint-cheapest long contract with PacificLight, Senoko and Tuas; FIXED24 is 29.80¢ (27.34¢ before GST); FIXED12 is 34.77¢, effectively the regulated tariff. SURESAVE DOT is back at 12% off tariff with no contract and no early-termination charge, guaranteed 24 months, but only for customers switching from SP Group and only for contracts starting on or after 1 Oct 2026, so it tracks the Q4 tariff. Weekend Saver 24 is 27.90¢ all weekend and 9pm-9am on weekdays against 39.90¢ weekdays 9am-9pm, and needs a smart meter ($43.60 with GST to install if you have none). ecoGreen24 is 38.80¢. Rebates: NEW125 pays $125 on FIXED24, first 1,000 new customers; NEW100 pays $100 on FIXED36 or ecoGreen24. Maybank recurring card payment adds $20 on 24 or 36-month plans or $10 on 12 months, first 125 sign-ups or renewals, 1 Jul to 30 Sep 2026, with the first Maybank transaction by 30 Nov and the rebate paid by 31 Dec. GIRO recurring payment adds $10, by posted form. A security deposit applies to all new sign-ups from 1 Oct 2025 onwards, and none of these offers cover recontracts or relocations.

SP Group: The 34.78¢/kWh Baseline Everything Above Is Measured Against, With One Quarter Left to Run

Not a deal, but the number every offer above quotes against, so it belongs on the list. If you have never switched, you are on SP Group's regulated tariff, which the Energy Market Authority reviews every quarter and publishes in advance. For 1 July to 30 September 2026 it is 34.78¢/kWh with GST, or 31.91¢/kWh before GST, and it has not moved through either round of retailer repricing in August. The next revision takes effect on 1 October 2026 and will be published shortly before. On a household using 400 kWh a month that tariff is a bill of $139.12, against $117.60 on any of the three 29.40¢ contracts, so staying put costs about $21.50 a month or $258 a year. The tariff has one genuine advantage that no retail plan matches: there is no contract, no lock-in, no sign-up cap, no promo code to remember and no early-termination charge, so you can leave at any time for nothing. That makes it the right answer in exactly two situations, when you are about to move or renovate and cannot say where you will be living in six months, and when the quarterly tariff has fallen far enough that the retail discounts stop being worth the commitment. Neither applies right now. It is also worth knowing what the tariff is not: it is not a subsidy and it is not indexed to your household, and your U-Save rebates are credited to your utilities account either way, so staying on SP buys you nothing on that front. BEST FOR: anyone whose living situation is about to change, and anyone who genuinely will not remember to check a promo code at checkout. Everyone else is paying roughly $258 a year for the privilege of not filling in a form.

Regulated tariff unchanged at 34.78¢/kWh with GST (31.91¢ before GST) for 1 Jul to 30 Sep 2026, verified on SP's own tariff page on 5 Sep 2026, where the four cost components read 0.08¢ market admin and PSO fee, 0.23¢ MSS fee, 6.10¢ network costs and 25.50¢ energy costs, all before GST. The Q4 revision takes effect 1 Oct 2026 and has not been published yet. On 400 kWh a month the tariff is a $139.12 bill, against $117.60 on any of the four 29.40¢ contracts, so staying put costs about $258 a year. No contract, no lock-in, no sign-up cap and no early-termination fee, and your U-Save rebates are credited the same way whichever retailer bills you

What changed since 26 August

We have now read every retailer's live rates off their own price-plan pages, EMA fact sheets and promo T&C PDFs five times: on 27 July, 5 August, 16 August, 26 August and again on 5 September 2026. Not one published rate moved in that window. Every change below is a promotion.

RetailerWhat moved since 26 August
Keppel ElectricThe rate card is published again. FIXED36 29.40¢, FIXED24 29.80¢, FIXED12 34.77¢, Weekend Saver 27.90¢ off-peak, ecoGreen24 38.80¢, and SURESAVE DOT is back at 12% off tariff for SP switchers on contracts starting 1 Oct. Rebates: NEW125 ($125, FIXED24) and NEW100 ($100, FIXED36).
Tuas PowerONSGDAY26 expired on 31 August. The replacement, ONLINE, pays $160 on PowerFIX 36 and $100 on PowerFIX 24, runs 1 Sep to 11 Oct and is capped at the first 500. ONGREEN and PRUOB moved to 11 Oct. New: PRPL26, a free StarHub Premier+ Annual Pass worth $380 on the green plan, first 180, to 30 Sep.
GenecoAll three POWER codes are dead. September runs on GENECO200 ($200, SP customers), GENECO100 ($100, everyone else) and GENECO15 ($15, to 31 Oct), plus a four-day GENECO270 at $270 for SP customers, 3 to 6 Sep only. The $1,650 draw and the 8-months-free Power Eco offer are both gone again, and the 3,100 sign-up cap is no longer stated.
Senoko EnergyRates unchanged. The $339 PRISM+ mini fridge is now FULLY REDEEMED, the fifth gift to sell out. New in its place: a $680 2-piece Samsonite Oc2lite set + $30 (TBBCSB30, Trust card, first 600) and a $259 TTRacing gaming chair (GIROBCRC, first 400). Maybank now pays up to $200 with MBFC180.

The short answer

  • Cheapest long contract: a four-way tie at 29.40¢/kWh between Keppel FIXED36, PacificLight Savvy Saver 36, Senoko LifePower36 and Tuas PowerFIX 36
  • Biggest cash rebate anywhere: Geneco GENECO270 pays $270 on Get It Fixed 24, but only to SP Group customers and only until 6 September
  • Best cash on a 29.40¢ contract: PacificLight ATE36 pays $250 (first 100 sign-ups, to 30 Sep), ahead of Tuas's $160 and Keppel's $100
  • Best free gift: Senoko LifePower36 with a 2-piece Samsonite Oc2lite set worth $680 plus $30 (TBBCSB30, Trust card, first 600)
  • Best 24-month package outside Geneco: Keppel FIXED24 at 29.80¢ with $125 (NEW125, first 1,000) plus $20 on a Maybank card
  • Cheapest with no contract: PacificLight Easy Peasy at 26.00¢/kWh, but only above about 490 kWh a month once the 55¢/day charge is counted
  • Deadlines: Geneco GENECO270 on 6 Sep; PacificLight's ATE codes, Keppel's Maybank offer and Tuas PRPL26 on 30 Sep; Tuas ONLINE, ONGREEN and PRUOB on 11 Oct
  • Not worth signing: Keppel FIXED12 at 34.77¢, which is one hundredth of a cent below the tariff you are already paying

What switching is actually worth

On a household using 400 kWh a month, where SP's tariff costs $139.12:

Three things stand out. The first is that the top of the table has flattened further: four identical 29.40¢ plans from four different retailers, so the only thing left to choose on is the sign-up perk. The second is Keppel's return, which is the reason the tie is now four-way, and which puts a genuinely competitive no-contract discount plan back in the market at 12% off tariff, better than any other retailer's DOT plan by a wide margin. The third is the Easy Peasy line. Its headline 26.00¢ is the lowest published rate in Singapore, but the 55¢ daily charge adds about $16.70 a month, which works out to 4.19¢ on every unit at 400 kWh and pushes the effective rate to 30.19¢. Because the fee is fixed while the units are not, the maths flips as usage rises: Easy Peasy overtakes the 29.80¢ plans at about 440 kWh a month and the 29.40¢ plans at about 490 kWh. Below roughly 190 kWh it is worse than simply staying on SP.

Every discount-off-tariff plan, ranked

If you would rather track the regulated tariff than lock a fixed rate, these are the only discount-off-tariff (DOT) plans currently sold to households, converted against today's 34.78¢ so you can compare them directly. A percentage discount falls when the tariff falls, which a fixed rate will not, but note that every one of them is still beaten by the 29.40¢ fixed plans on today's numbers.

LifeSteady24 / 36Senoko Energy1.64¢ off tariff~33.14¢24 / 36 months

Keppel's SURESAVE DOT is the one that has changed this table. At 12% off tariff with no contract, no early-termination charge and a 24-month guarantee on the discount, it is the best DOT plan on sale, and it is the only one that beats a 12-month fixed contract without asking you to commit to anything. Two catches: it is open only to customers switching directly from SP Group, and the contract cannot start before 1 October 2026, so what you actually pay depends on a Q4 tariff that has not been published yet. The wider lesson in the table is that "guaranteed below the tariff" and "cheap" are not the same claim. Senoko's LifeSteady guarantees you sit under the regulated price, but only by 1.64¢, while Senoko's own fixed plan is 3.74¢ cheaper than LifeSteady right now. Classic 60 is the other trap: the advertised 8% is 3% off the tariff plus a 5% prompt-payment discount, so a single late bill costs you more than half the headline.

Three of Geneco's four codes are closed to anyone already buying from an open-market retailer, because the T&C PDFs require you to be an SP Group customer before you switch. That is the single most common reason a reader tells us a code was rejected at checkout. Almost every retailer here also pays a referral on top: $30 to you at PacificLight ($20 to your friend), $20 each way at Senoko, and $20 a head at Tuas and Geneco. If you know an existing customer, ask for their code before you sign, because it stacks on the promo code above and costs the person referring you nothing. Two exceptions: Geneco's Get It 7 To 7 takes no promotion or referral code at all, and Tuas states its bill rebate is revised when a referral is combined with another promotion.

What the Open Electricity Market actually is

If you have never switched, this is the part worth two minutes. The Open Electricity Market is the scheme that has let households in Singapore buy electricity from a licensed retailer instead of from SP Group at the regulated tariff, since the nationwide rollout completed in 2018. Everyone else stays on the tariff by default, which is a choice too, and on today's numbers an expensive one.

Three things are commonly misunderstood about it:

  • You are not changing your electricity supply, only your billing. SP Group remains the grid operator for everyone. It owns the cables, maintains them, restores your power during a fault and reads your meter, whichever retailer you buy from. The retailer is a reseller.
  • The list of residential retailers is much shorter than it used to be. The market consolidated after 2021 and several well-known names exited. The five in this roundup, PacificLight, Senoko Energy, Tuas Power Supply, Geneco and Keppel Electric, are the ones actively marketing residential plans right now. The authoritative, current list is the "List of Retailers" page on the OEM's own site, so check that rather than an old blog post if a name you remember is missing here.
  • Retail prices are commercial, not regulated. EMA reviews the SP tariff quarterly and publishes it in advance. Retailer prices are set by the retailers and can change any week, which is exactly what happened twice in August. Nothing obliges a retailer to hold a rate for anyone who has not yet signed.
  • A retailer that publishes nothing has not necessarily left. Keppel Electric served an empty price-plan page for the whole of August and a full rate card again on 5 September, with no announcement either way. Absence from a comparison table is a statement about that table, not about the company.

The practical consequence: an undated comparison of retail electricity prices is close to worthless, and a dated one starts decaying immediately. Check the retailer's own page on the day you sign.

Three things worth knowing before you sign

  1. Read the fact sheet, not the plan card. EMA requires every retailer to publish one per plan, and it is where the daily charges, the peak rates behind an advertised off-peak number, and the early-termination charge actually live. PacificLight's Easy Peasy fact sheet is the clearest example in this roundup: 26.00¢/kWh on the card, 26.00¢ plus 55¢ a day on the fact sheet.
  2. Switching does not interrupt your power. SP still owns the grid, delivers the electricity and reads your meter. Nothing is rewired and no one visits.
  3. Your U-Save rebates are unaffected. They are credited the same way whichever retailer bills you.

How to switch (it takes about 10 minutes)

You will need your latest electricity bill (for your account number and premises details), your NRIC, and a payment method. Most of the bigger rebates in this roundup require you to set up recurring payment by GIRO or card, so decide that before you start rather than halfway through checkout.

Then: pick your plan, enter the promo code at checkout (this is the step people forget, because the rebate is not applied automatically), upload your bill, and submit. The retailer files the transfer with SP on your behalf and it takes effect from your next meter reading cycle. There is no fee to leave SP.

Before you commit, check the early-termination fee. A 36-month contract at 29.40¢ is a good rate, but if you are likely to move house, renovate or leave the country inside three years, the exit penalty can wipe out the saving. Tuas publishes a flat $200 on PowerFIX 36; others calculate it from the remaining term.

And check the code as well as the rate. August made the rate point twice: a household that signed with Senoko on 27 July locked 27.18¢ for three years, while one that signed on 5 August pays 29.40¢ for the same plan, and PacificLight raised the identical plan from 27.18¢ to 29.40¢ on 20 August. September has made the promotions point instead. Not one published rate has moved since 26 August, but every single Tuas and Geneco code we listed has been withdrawn and replaced, Senoko's best gift sold out, and Keppel went from no rate card to a competitive one. Whatever any comparison article says, including this one, the number and the code on the retailer's own page at the moment you sign are the only ones that bind, and a gift is only yours if it is still listed when you check out.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the cheapest electricity plan in Singapore right now?

For a typical household, four plans tie: Keppel FIXED36, PacificLight Savvy Saver 36, Senoko LifePower36 and Tuas Power PowerFIX 36, all at 29.40¢/kWh over 36 months as at 5 September 2026. That is 15.5% below SP's regulated 34.78¢ and worth about $258 a year on 400 kWh a month. Keppel is new to this tier: it published no residential rate at all through August and put a full rate card back on its site in early September. Since the four rates are identical, the sign-up perk decides it, and they are not close: PacificLight's ATE36 pays $250, Tuas's ONLINE pays $160, Keppel's NEW100 pays $100, and Senoko offers a 2-piece Samsonite Oc2lite luggage set worth $680 plus $30 on a Trust card. PacificLight's Easy Peasy advertises a lower 26.00¢/kWh with no contract, and it is genuinely the lowest published per-kWh number in the market, but its fact sheet also charges 55¢ a day. On 400 kWh a month that adds about $16.70, taking the real cost to roughly 30.19¢/kWh, so Easy Peasy only becomes the cheapest option above about 490 kWh a month. All figures include 9% GST.

Why is a 26.00¢/kWh plan not cheaper than a 29.40¢ one?

Because of the daily charge, which is the fee you pay just for having the account open, regardless of how much electricity you use. PacificLight's three no-contract plans carry one: Easy Peasy and Easy Save both charge 55¢ a day, and 9 To 9 charges $1.01 a day. On an average month of about 30.4 days, 55¢ a day is roughly $16.70. Spread that across 400 kWh and it adds 4.19¢ to every unit, which turns a headline 26.00¢ into an effective 30.19¢. The arithmetic works in your favour as usage rises, because the fee is fixed while the kWh keep coming: Easy Peasy overtakes the 29.80¢ plans at about 440 kWh a month and the 29.40¢ plans at about 490 kWh, and it beats staying on SP's tariff above about 190 kWh. Below that, it is worse than doing nothing. None of the contracted plans in this roundup carry a daily charge, and Senoko, Tuas and Geneco charge none on any residential plan, though Senoko does list a $1.635 paper-invoice fee per bill if you refuse e-billing. The general rule: whenever a rate looks dramatically better than the market, open the EMA fact sheet and look for a daily or monthly charge before you compare it with anything.

Did electricity rates in Singapore go up in September 2026?

Not so far. Not one published rate has moved since 26 August, and SP's regulated tariff is fixed at 34.78¢/kWh with GST for the whole of 1 July to 30 September 2026, with the next revision taking effect on 1 October 2026 and not yet published. What has changed in September is the promotions, and heavily: Tuas replaced ONSGDAY26 with ONLINE and cut its top rebate from $200 to $160, Geneco retired all three POWER codes for GENECO200, GENECO100 and GENECO15, and Keppel Electric published a residential rate card for the first time since early August. August was the opposite: the tariff held while retailer rates were repriced twice. In the first week of August, Senoko's LifePower36 went from 27.18¢ to 29.40¢, Tuas Power's PowerFIX 36 from 27.28¢ to 29.40¢ and Geneco's Get It Fixed 24 from 27.50¢ to 29.80¢. PacificLight held out through that round, then repriced on 20 August: Savvy Saver 36 from 27.18¢ to 29.40¢, Savvy Saver 24 from 27.50¢ to 29.80¢, with Save While Sleeping's off-peak rate going from 16.70¢ to 22.50¢ and Stack It Up moving to volume bands topping out at 30.00¢. Earlier in the month it had already taken Savvy Saver 12 to 31.00¢ and Sunny Side-Up 12 to 31.50¢. Geneco made one more small move on 26 August, taking Get It 7 To 7's off-peak rate from 27.28¢ to 27.90¢. The practical points: a rate you were quoted in July is not a rate you can still get, an existing contract is unaffected because you keep the rate you signed at for your full term, and switching is still worth roughly $181 to $258 a year against staying on SP.

What is a sign-up cap, and which plans have one right now?

A sign-up cap means the advertised rate or gift is only available to a fixed number of customers, and once that many people have signed, it is withdrawn without warning. Geneco is the only retailer here that caps a rate, and it has just made that cap less useful: Get It Fixed 24 and Get It Fixed 12 are now both described on their plan cards only as limited sign-ups, where in August the 24-month plan said first 3,100. Geneco has moved that number from 3,800 in late July to no cap in early August to 3,100 in late August and now to no published number at all, and it has never shown a running counter. The other retailers cap the perk rather than the rate, and those caps are tight. Tuas's ONLINE rebate is limited to the first 500 successful transfers and its PRPL26 StarHub pass to the first 180. Keppel's NEW125 is capped at the first 1,000 new customers and its Maybank rebate at the first 125 sign-ups or renewals. PacificLight's ATE 2026 rebates are limited to the first 100 sign-ups per code, its Maybank codes to the first 40 each and its yuu codes to the first 500. Senoko's gifts are capped by unit: the Samsonite Oc2lite set is limited to the first 600, the TTRacing gaming chair to the first 400 and the SMEG kettle to the first 260, and five of its gifts already read FULLY REDEEMED, including the PRISM+ mini fridge that was still available in late August. The practical advice: if a capped plan or gift is the one you want, sign up the day you decide rather than bookmarking it, and check that the rate and gift on your confirmation screen match what you were shown.

Will my power be cut off or disrupted when I switch retailer?

No. Switching is a billing change, not a physical one. SP Group still owns and maintains the power grid, still delivers the electricity to your flat and still reads your meter, regardless of which retailer you buy from. Nothing is rewired, no technician needs to visit, and there is no interruption to supply at any point in the transfer. The only thing that changes is who sends you the bill and what rate you are charged per kWh. Transfers typically take effect from your next meter reading cycle.

Fixed rate or discount-off-tariff: which should I choose?

A fixed rate locks your price per kWh for the whole contract, so you are protected if the tariff rises but gain nothing if it falls. A discount-off-tariff (DOT) plan always sits below the regulated price whichever way it moves. The size of the discount decides it, and right now none of them are competitive. PacificLight's Easy Save is the deepest at 18% off, about 28.52¢ at today's 34.78¢ tariff, but it also carries the 55¢/day charge, which takes it to roughly 32.71¢ effective on 400 kWh a month. Tuas Power's PowerDOT 6 is 10% off, about 31.30¢, over six months. PacificLight's Classic 60 is 3% off the tariff with a further 5% prompt-payment discount, so the advertised 8% is only yours if you never pay late, and it locks you in for five years. Senoko's LifeSteady24 and LifeSteady36 give a guaranteed 1.64¢/kWh off the tariff, about 33.14¢ today, which is 3.74¢ worse than Senoko's own fixed rate. Keppel's SURESAVE DOT cannot be assessed because Keppel publishes no figure. So on today's numbers a fixed 29.40¢ beats every DOT plan on the board, and DOT only wins if you expect the quarterly tariff to fall a long way before your contract would have ended.

Why do some plans advertise rates as low as 18.50¢/kWh?

Because that is the cheapest tier of a time-of-use plan, not the rate you pay all day, and in one case there is a daily charge on top. PacificLight's 9 To 9 advertises 18.50¢/kWh, but the fact sheet shows that rate applies only from 9pm to 9am; from 9am to 9pm you pay 38.00¢, which is above the SP tariff, and a $1.01 daily charge applies on top, worth about $30.70 a month. Its Save While Sleeping 24 now reads 22.50¢ from 11pm to 7am against 34.50¢ during the day, where the off-peak half used to be advertised as 16.70¢. Stack It Up 24 is a different animal again: it bands by volume rather than by time, charging 30.00¢ on the first 300 kWh, 29.40¢ from 301 to 600 kWh and 28.00¢ above that. Senoko's LifeSavvy24 is 20.05¢ off-peak between 11pm and 7am against 36.95¢ during the day. The most readable of them is Geneco's Get It 7 To 7, which publishes both halves on the plan card: 27.90¢ from 7pm to 7am and 32.50¢ from 7am to 7pm. These plans only save money if a genuinely large share of your usage, meaning washing, drying, water heating, EV charging or overnight aircon, falls inside the cheap window. For a household whose heaviest use is in the evening, a flat 29.40¢ is the safer buy.

Do I still get U-Save rebates and can I pay with CDC vouchers?

U-Save rebates are unaffected by which retailer you use. They are credited against your utilities account by the Government for eligible HDB households, whether you buy electricity from SP Group or from an open-market retailer, and every retailer in this roundup states that its plans are compatible with U-Save. CDC vouchers are a different scheme. They are for participating heartland merchants and supermarkets, and are not a way to pay your electricity bill directly. If your goal is to cut the household bill overall, the switch itself is worth roughly $258 a year on 400 kWh a month, which is more than most one-off rebates.

Is Senoko, Tuas or any other retailer actually cheaper than SP Group?

Yes, and by a consistent margin, because every retailer here prices against the same regulated tariff. On 400 kWh a month SP's 34.78¢ tariff costs $139.12. Senoko LifePower36, Tuas PowerFIX 36, Keppel FIXED36 and PacificLight Savvy Saver 36 are all 29.40¢, which is $117.60, so any of the four saves about $21.52 a month or $258 a year. The 24-month plans at 29.80¢ save about $239 a year and the 12-month plans at 31.00¢ about $181. Add the sign-up rebate and the first year is worth more again: $250 from PacificLight's ATE36, $160 from Tuas's ONLINE, $100 from Keppel's NEW100, or $270 from Geneco's GENECO270 on the 29.80¢ plan if you are switching from SP before 6 September. The catch is not price, it is commitment. SP has no contract, no lock-in and no early-termination charge, while all four 29.40¢ plans tie you in for three years with an exit fee, so the saving is only real if you are confident you will stay put. If you are not, Keppel's SURESAVE DOT at 12% off the tariff has no contract and still saves about $200 a year, and PacificLight's Easy Peasy beats SP at anything above roughly 190 kWh a month once its 55¢ daily charge is counted.

Do I have to pay a security deposit when I switch electricity retailer?

Usually not, but it depends on the retailer and on how you pay. Three of the five here waive it outright if you set up recurring payment: PacificLight waives the deposit on recurring card payment with Visa, Mastercard or Amex, Senoko states no security deposit on its household plans, and Tuas charges no additional deposit if you are transferring from SP Services. Keppel Electric is the exception worth reading before you sign, because its own terms state that a security deposit applies to all new sign-ups from 1 October 2025 onwards, including on the no-contract SURESAVE DOT plan. Geneco does not advertise a deposit on its residential price plans, but as with every retailer here the amount, if any, is set at application and can depend on your credit assessment and whether you are a Singaporean, a PR or a foreigner, so ask before you submit rather than after. Two things a deposit is not: it is not a fee, since it is refunded when you close the account in good standing, and it is not the same as an early-termination charge, which is a separate penalty for leaving a fixed contract before it ends.

What happens if I break the contract early?

Every fixed-rate plan in this roundup carries an early-termination charge, and it is the one number that is not printed on the price-plan page. It sits in each plan's EMA fact sheet and terms, so read that before you sign rather than after. Tuas Power's PowerFIX 36 fact sheet, for example, states a flat $200 with no GST. Others calculate it from how much of your contract is left, which means a 36-month plan broken in year one costs far more to exit than the same plan broken in month 30. Two situations catch people out: moving house and moving overseas. Most retailers will let you transfer the contract to your new address instead of terminating it, so ask about a transfer before you assume you have to pay to leave. If there is any real chance you will move, renovate or leave Singapore within the contract period, the safer buy is a no-contract plan or the SP tariff itself, which you can leave at any time for free. PacificLight's Easy Peasy has no lock-in and no early-termination charge at all, though remember its 55¢ daily charge makes it worth taking only if you use a lot of electricity.
