Queensland Household Energy Survey 2025

Welcome to the Queensland Household Energy Survey (QHES) 2025 – Queensland’s most comprehensive survey capturing household insights and trends in energy behaviours and attitudes.

The QHES, an annual survey conducted since 2009, provides insights into consumers’ views of the energy sector, how they are managing household electricity bills and how they use electricity in the home. It also explores consumers’ sentiment towards electricity supply, reliability and cost, together with tracking trends in perceptions and attitudes towards new technologies such as solar PV, battery storage, electric vehicles, and active management of their energy use.   

You can explore this year’s results by theme through clicking on the themed tiles below. Within most sections you can view the data by location, age group, solar PV ownership and other household characteristics. You can also select the “Trend” button to see how the overall results have changed over time.

Please note that the QHES 2025 results are based on the 4,105 participants that completed this year’s survey. While the survey aims to be representative of the Queensland households, there is a higher incidence of participants who own solar PV, Electric Vehicles (EVs) and battery storage compared to other sources. Furthermore, some questions relate only to those who have particular technologies such as solar PV, EVs and battery storage and should not be taken as a representation of all households in Queensland.
