business electricity prices
It's easy to get a quote to reduce business electricity prices for your organisation and powerexperts are here to help you achieve your goals
with impartial expert and professional advice to keep your energy bills to a minimum. Most companies still have their original business electricity supplier
from when the initial degregulation of the industry was undertaken decades ago because they may not be aware that cheaper tariffs and rates
are actually an option that they can get.

Getting a quote for commercial electricity rates is really
easy and you can either go directly to the major companies such as British Gas, Npower, EDF Energy, Eon, Southern Electric
or Scottish Power who control almost 100% of the energy market or perhaps try one of the new green renewable energy
companies that provide businesses with only fuel from sustainable sources.
Switch your supplier
Much like thousands of people do with their domestic energy bills
businesses large and small can easily and effectively switch to a new supplier if they find a cheaper alternative. It's
very easy and painless to switch these days and there is no hassle involved as all the work is undertaken by your new
energy provider. So don't be put off by switching as it can be done all for you.
As all businesses need to have electricity to run their business finding the cheapest business electricity prices
is something that all organisations should be comparing each and every year. Most energy contracts for electric
and gas supplies run for one year although there are specific clauses in them stating how and when you can change
supplier if you want to. If you don't renegotiate your contract your energy supplier will in most cases
undertake what is called a rollover contract where they will automatically sign you up for one more year at
new fixed rates which may be higher than you currently have. Then there is nothing you can do about this and
you will remain on these higher prices until the following year.
The best business electricity prices are available online from all the major companies and we
recommend you start with a 60 second quote from the British Gas business website as they guarantee to save you 10% of your current renewal letter.
So the first port of call is you find your contract and if you are close to the termination period then it's
time to get some quotes to get cheaper business electricity prices for your organisation and here are three
methods on how to achieve this.
- Firstly you should visit all of the major electricity supplier's websites in the UK and find their
business section. They all have instant online quote forms where once you enter your business postcode and
annual consumption will be able to provide a quote for you. You'll get a more accurate tariff option if you
are able to provide your meter number (which is printed on the front of your electricity meter). Tariffs are generally
set by how much energy you use each year so the options presented for micro business owners and small businesses will
be the lowest available. For large commercial organisations there are always additional discounts to be had but
the website is the best place to start
- Although visiting the likes of British Gas and Npower business electricity sections and completing the information
should only take around 10 minutes of your time there are all of market price comparison websites who can find all
the rates and tariffs and present them to you on one page. Just be careful who you choose because tariff types and rates
change all of the time and their website might not be totally up to date.
- If you use a lot of electricity for your commercial organisation then a specialist energy broker may be a method
to consider as they may be able to negotiate better prices than you could.
The first decision is just to check if the rates provided by our recommended company British Gas are cheaper than
what you already have then perhaps choose some of the other options.
