Switch Business Gas Suppliers

The most popular business gas tariff for those who want to lock in their rates for security. You can fix your rates from 1 year up to 5 years. This means that if wholesale gas prices increase or decrease you will have the security of paying the same unit rate and standing charge for the agreed amount of time.

This can change each month based on the wholesale gas prices. This means businesses more open to risk can benefit from drops in wholesale prices but may pay more during times of increasing rates.

This tariff means that a business will not pay a daily standing charge. However, typically no standing charge tariffs often come with higher unit rates than other tariffs. For businesses that operate part-time or seasonally, this may save them money.

Deemed rates are what businesses taking over new premises will pay until they enter into a gas supply contract.

The amount is paid to the existing supplier of the premises until a contract can be arranged with them or another supplier. The prices are very high but are never meant to be paid for long. Just be aware the deemed unit prices can easily be 200%+ more than in-contract rates, so there’s a big incentive to switch quickly.

Businesses do not benefit from the price cap. This means that business gas comparison remains competitive and it means you can secure great business gas rates. 

It’s important to regularly compare business gas to ensure you're saving the most amount of money possible. 

A rollover tariff is pretty similar to a deemed tariff. A rollover contract is a new energy contract that a supplier automatically enrols for the customer if the customer doesn't cancel their existing contract within a certain time period. They are usually more expensive and can be legally binding for up to a year.

A green tariff is an energy plan created with a customer's energy goals in mind. The plan will match some or all of the gas and electricity a customer buys with renewable energy that their supplier purchases on their behalf. Renewable energy sources include wind farms, solar farms, and hydroelectric power stations. Some green tariffs are also nuclear-free.

A SEG tariff is a payment arrangement that allows small-scale generators to receive money for the electricity they export to the national grid.

A flexible tariff is also known as a variable tariff. It is an energy contract where the cost of energy can change based on wholesale energy prices.

A pass-through tariff allows a customer to fix the price of their electricity commodity while choosing which non-commodity charges are passed onto them. Non-commodity charges are fees paid to companies that maintain the gas and electricity networks and are also known as pass-through costs. These costs are set by the governments and/or Ofgem.

The best way to compare business gas prices is to use our engine to see how much money you will be able to save:

Step 1 - Enter our engine and put in your business information when prompted.

Step 2 - See business gas price quotes from our supplier panel and choose a tariff that suits you best.

Step 3 - Buy online, or speak to one of our advisors to tailor the tariff further so you are only paying for exactly what you need.

Having a recent business gas bill, what type of meter you have (not essential), your business information and your current gas supplier are all helpful things to have.

Our comparison engine only needs your business address and permission to look up your usage data. It takes 30 seconds to see live prices on our site. However, having a few more bits of information is helpful to ensure you’re getting a more accurate business gas quote.

You must consider your current energy usage, how much you're paying, what you want to be paying, and if there are any goals you'd like to achieve in terms of energy saving.

This information can be discovered when you perform a business energy audit.

If the quote you’ve been offered by a business gas supplier is competitive and considers your current and expected commercial gas usage pattern and that supplier is trusted and well-reviewed, then you’ve been offered a good business gas quote.

12 months before the day the contract ends (your CED), you’re free to compare the market and agree on a new deal with a different supplier. It’s free, so why not see how you can take advantage of a great new deal?

Business gas rates vary by location, vary by usage patterns, and other elements.

Moving may mean your existing supplier can no longer offer you the best deal.

Similar to when you move to a new premise, if you’re adding a second location, then it’s worth comparing deals too! 

Some suppliers offer 100% renewable gas, and if your business is committed to environmental sustainability, then this is every reason you need to compare and switch.

Wholesale prices change every day, so within a year of your business gas deal starting you may feel your once competitive tariff, no longer is.

Running a business gas price comparison can be an easy solution to getting a better deal.

Switching business gas is not always about saving the most money. If you’re unhappy with the customer service of your current business gas supplier, then switch to a supplier who will be there for you when you need them the most.
