As mums, energy consumption in the household is always a concern.

Which is why we’re excited to announce the AGL product review of  My AGL IQ® – A new online way to track and help reduce your energy usage.

AGL is proud to tell you about a new way to help you achieve your energy savings goals by allowing you to monitor your energy usage.

My AGL IQ is a world class energy reporting tool, developed by AGL in Australia specifically for Australian customers. It is available to gas and electricity customers^, including solar customers.

We’ve made it easy for you to see how much energy you’re using and how this translates to dollars and cents for your household.

My AGL IQ can help you in three important ways.

1. See – how you use energy.

  • Track how much energy you are using and how much your usage charges are.
  • Compare your usage with Similar Homes*.
  • Compare your current bill to previous bill periods.
  • See how the temperature can impact your energy usage.

2. Act – make a plan to do something about it.

  • Build a personal energy saving action plan.
  • Complete your home profile to receive more targeted energy saving advice and tips.
  • Set goals and track how you are performing against them.

3. Save – reduce your energy use.

  • Reduce your energy use by taking practical steps.
  • Reduce your greenhouse gas emissions using energy saving tips.
  • Save on your energy bills by reducing your energy use.

If you’re not an AGL customer, you can click here to sign up to a great energy deal in 3 easy steps. Just use this VIP code: aMOMS.

As an AGL customer you’ll receive a great discount on your household electricity and gas market rate usage charges# plus:

  • 24/7 Access to AGL Energy Online
  • Earn 1 flybuys point per $1 spent on your home energy bills. Simply link your AGL account(s) and flybuys membership and sign-up for AGL Energy Online and eBilling.~

And of course you’ll have 24/7 access to My AGL IQ to track and help reduce your energy usage.

Please note, this is an online offer only and may be subject to change.

To get started, simply log on to AGL Energy Online and you can start filling out your My AGL IQ profile straight away.

If you haven’t registered yet for AGL Energy Online, don’t worry – it’s easy. Remember to have your account number and name as it appears on your bill to complete your online registration. In a few minutes you’ll be on your way to tracking your energy usage.

Smart electricity meters – If you have a smart meter that is not manually read, then your energy usage is updated daily and you can monitor your usage in 60 minute intervals. This means you can see how your usage changes when you turn on your TV, or use your washing machine.

Basic meters – electricity and gas. If you have a manually read electricity meter or a gas meter, your usage information for each billing period is displayed in an easy to read graph. This allows you to compare your energy usage and usage charges to previous billing cycles.

Compare your usage – With My AGL IQ, you are able to compare your usage to Similar Homes* and see if you’re using more or less energy on average. And with a completed home profile we can provide you with more relevant energy saving advice and tips, which are more in line with your energy usage and lifestyle.

Set targets to save – Once you’ve created a home profile and begun monitoring your energy usage, you can start making changes to lower your energy usage and save on your bills. By monitoring your energy usage and bill amounts, setting goals and implementing practical tips, you could reduce your energy usage. If you’re an electricity customer with a smart meter that is not manually read, you could also monitor your bill projections as you go.

It’s as easy as:

  • Setting a goal.
  • Reducing energy usage by taking practical steps.
  • Tracking how you are performing against your goals.

My AGL IQ is free and exclusive to AGL customers and is accessible 24 hours a day via AGL Energy Online to:

  • wonderful company

    I have been with a few different electricity companies before I settled on AGL. They are a fantastic company that are leading the way in the future of electricity.

    Their costs are low, we have seen nowhere near the jump some of our friends have. This site allows you to monitor what you are doing and when, putting you in full control of your bill! Highly recommend!

    I just registered for My AGL IQ online. It was quick and easy to do and it has lots of handy little tips on how to reduce my energy consumption. I’ve only just received a bill, so given I follow through with AGL’s tips, it will be interesting to see how the changes made effect the next bill.

  • Easy as 1, 2, 3.

    I wasn’t chosen for this review, but I have been using the AGL IQ for over a month now. I found it very easy to set up and use. It’s pretty much dummy proof. I think the other electricity companies should look into doing this. I have personally recommended this to many friends and families. I love the graphs, they allow you to compare over time and in different ways and compare to others similar.

  • Easy to use and a great way to save

    I was already registered for AGL online so setting up the MY AGL IQ was fast and easy. I love that I can go back and look into my history and also compare my energy usage with similar homes.
    Setting up the profile was simple and it gave me some great tips on saving power. With not having off-peak my bills are always huge, so this is great. One thing I did find by using the history comparison is that although my bill was higher last quarter compared to the same time last year, my usage was a lot lower, so it showed that the increase in my bills is not caused by consumption, but rising prices.

    Ive tried to use this and I found that this site is very helpful and there are heaps of useful tips. I used to not understand my household electricity use and how it goes being a first time home owner. It was hard navigating through other sites and there were so many technical terms. But this site was easy to understand with simple terms and comparisons that I can get to know easily. Its a great site and very informative. Great idea for such a simple thing.

    Its easy to use and the layout is great. It was easy to set up my profile and I especially liked the way that I was able to establish a profile of my house and compare it to other, similar properties.
    I found the energy saving tips very obvious and generic. This would have been more helpful if the tips were specific to my profile. Still useful in terms of keeping track.

  • AGL is AOK

    I used this app with my kids, just to show them how little things they do can change how much our bills are each quarter. 3 of my kids are older and had a good understanding, thanks to the app, of how the items they personally use are running up our bill and how just switching on the fan instead of the aircon can save us $$. I’d recommend for that purpose. For educating an already educated mum…not so much.

  • Priceless tool for a single Mum of 4!

    Right from the start I liked the idea of My AGL IQ. The endless tips that you would not even think about that can save you money by lowering your electricity usage is wonderful. I also purchased the clothes dryer balls from the AGL shop and even though I have a very efficient dryer these balls have cut the drying time in half! They are amazing. All in all I couldn’t be happier with this lifestyle improvement.

    The hint’s are helpful if your not already using common sense in energy saving and to bring awareness those who are care free with electricity usage,but for those who are doing all of that already it is a bit frustrating because you want to save money but your limited when you have a family on some things to implement

    I think this site is only helpful to see how much you owe and that’s about it,
    even then that’s difficult, they don’t even have an easy way to see your account balance or owing,
    the advice is also not that helpful, its all over tv anyway so no use going to this site for it,

  • AGL IQ BRING IT TO WA

    While this was tested at my son’s home as we do not have access to it here in WA. I found out that I enjoyed it and yes he was saving on costs and it was handy for his partner to point out how he could save doing things differently. I just wish we could have it here, never thought I would miss smart meters or the ability to use other electric companies for power.

Article ‘A Beautiful Adelaide Blend With A Lighter Alcohol Content!’

‘A Beautiful Adelaide Blend With A Lighter Alcohol Content!’

For lighter wines that still taste like the real deal, Chapel Hill’s Enlightened range is quickly becoming a go-to. These bottles bring all the flavour with noticeably less alcohol, which is why everyone’s falling in love with them.

Best SIPS’ Chapel Hill Enlightened Wines review team put the Rosé and Pinot Grigio through their paces, and the feedback was unanimous: both are fresh, light and perfect for summer sipping without the unwanted morning crogginess.

A rosé with summer written all over it

Chapel Hill’s Enlightened Rosé is bright, crisp and fruity, hitting all the right notes without tipping into the “too sweet” zone. It’s the kind of bottle you reach for at a casual barbecue or any get-together where you want something delicious but easygoing.

It’s exactly this balance of lightness and full flavour in an affordable bottle that has so many fans raving.

“Light, refreshing and honestly just feels like a little moment of peace in a glass. The flavour is this perfect mix of crisp + fruity without being too sweet — literally the kind of rosé you can sip while you finally sit down after a long day.”

Women trying Chapel Hill Enlightened Rosé.
A summer staple … on the lighter side

“Too many of these low alcohol wines just don’t taste enough like the real deal-but this is a sure fire exception. Beautifully refreshing, with a touch of sweetness that’s not overwhelming. A gorgeous colour too, which is a bonus- after all, we also drink either our eyes! Add into the mix a reasonable price point- this rose is a winner!”

“I love a nice glass of Rosé and the Chapel Hill Enlightened Rosé did not disappoint! It’s really light and refreshing and tastes like a really expensive wine. I love that this wine is really affordable, so I can enjoy a beautiful Rosé without breaking the bank more often. Definitely give this one a try!”

If your warm-weather wine rack needs an affordable new staple, this is it.

A Pinot Grigio you’ll be buying again (and again!)

For the white lovers, Chapel Hill’s Enlightened Pinot Grigio is a solid everyday white that ticks all the boxes: crisp, clean, food-friendly and affordable.

Our taste-testers repeatedly praised how balanced and versatile it feels, whether chilled on its own or alongside simple meals and casual gatherings.

“We love a white to pair with our spring/summer lunches and especially our seafood. This option ticked all the boxes …”

A versatile sip you’ll keep reaching for

“I enjoyed the first sip to the last of this Pinot. Anything with pear and citrus is something I want to try and this lived up to that, but with a lighter alcohol content – which I appreciate! Enjoyed over dinner, it paired really nicely with the food I was eating. This wine is something I’d happily recommend to others.”

“The wine offered just the right balance of fruity flavours – fresh and vibrant, but never overpowering or too sharp. It paired beautifully with both our light lunches and dinner, making every meal feel a bit more special. I also appreciated how crisp and refreshing it tasted, perfect for unwinding and enjoying good company. Definitely a Pinot Grigio I’d reach for again.”

Your lower-alcohol go-to

The team rates Enlightened wines 4.34 out of 5 and recommends them for anyone on the hunt for flavour-forward wine with less alcohol. They’re bright, modern and made for the kind of moments where you’d love a glass, but still want to feel good afterwards.

Find Chapel Hill Enlightened at Dan Murphy’s right now for $17.99 each.

  • The warmer weather tends to make alcohol go to my head faster – I’m not a big drinker, but just for that reason I’d seriously consider a low alcohol wine. The Pinot Grigio particularly sound as if I might enjoy it. I might well buy a bottle or two for Christmas.

    Reply

  • Looks delicious, would be keen to try their wines based off the reviews. Love anything local and the light wine is just an extra win – low alcohol content would be fab for nights with friends where we all still have to drive home afterwards so would be buying for that type of event!

    Reply

  • Chapel Hill Wines do have quite a good reputation. I like the fact that it is low alcohol content. Personally, I like a very sweet wine but many would like these as they are not so sweet. I wish them well with sales and think it’s good they are doing something about lowering alcohol level.

    Reply

  • Thanks for sharing this review. It sounds that the taste is good, the price is good and the alcohol content is really low indeed. I do like the fact that they’re light. One of the things I don’t like when you’re drinking a couple of glasses that it fills you up and it affects your appetite

    Reply

  • I appreciate all the reviews and think this is an excellent way to get your brand out there and known.

    Reply

  • I like the sound of the Pinot Grigio and will look out for it next time I’m at the bottle shop.

    Reply

  • I just asked the forum for recommendations on zero alcohol, but this is an attractive option as well! I do enjoy a Rose, so will try this one after all the positive reviews. It’s a shame they don’t have a sparkling in their collection yet! Would have been prefect for all the celebrating at this time of year.

    Reply

  • I dislike rose, but the pinot grigio sounds like it might suit me. To be honest, the alcohol content doesn’t bother me all that much – I rarely drink more than a glass or two anyway – but it would probably be nice from a general health point of view to know I’m consuming less alcohol.

    Reply

  • This sounds like the perfect glass. I do love being able to have a few drinks and not be all over the place about me. And as a bubbly girlie from Adelaide myself, I’m sure I’ll find a lot to like about this drop. Crisp and not too sweet, I’m sold and will have to try it.

    Reply

  • It was the first time for me hearing about the chapel hill brand. And i still recall when i picked up the Pinot Grigio from my local, the staff there actually stopped me and said i picked a winner! She said that it was probably the best Pinot they had available to sell.

    Reply

  • I’ve heard a lot of good things about Chapel Hill wines and the reviews are always good. I like that they have low alcohol range as I like to have a few glasses when I finally get to have one. Not being too sweet is a bonus that suits me well.

    Reply

  • The idea of having a lower alcohol content wine without compromising taste is really exciting. There’s nothing worse than feeling “under the weather” from the effects of alcohol. This lovely wine ticks all the boxes, lower alcohol and a refreshing flavour. I’m keen to get the Pinot Grigio in my cart and into my fridge!

    Reply

  • This wine sounds delightful and really refreshing to enjoy on a summer afternoon. I love that it tastes fresh and crisp and still has the same punch as other wine. It sounds like an absolute delight. I will have to give it a try next time i am at the bottle shop looking for some wine.
