Changes for our electricity sector could just be small steps in levelling the playing field.
New Electricity Authority rules will require generators to sell energy to everyone at the same rate.
This will stop our big four companies, known as gentailers, offering themselves discounts and limiting competition.
Octopus Energy Chief Operating Officer Margaret Cooney told Ryan Bridge she's afraid new rules won't crack down enough on the big four.
She says there's been lots of small steps, but it would be good to actually get to the nub of these issues.
