A major energy retailer has been slugged with the highest court-imposed penalty in a case brought by the regulator for overcharging customers on Centrelink.
Energy giant AGL has been ordered to pay the Commonwealth $25 million for overcharging hundreds of customers receiving welfare payments over five years.
The penalty imposed by Federal Court Justice Kylie Downes on Thursday is the largest in any case brought by the Australian Energy Regulator, since Origin was fined $17 million in 2022.
