Types of Energy Tariff
Fixed Rate Tariffs
Lock in your energy prices for 12-24 months with a fixed tariff. Your unit rates won't change even if wholesale prices rise, providing budget certainty and protection from price increases.
Best for: Budget planning, protection from price rises
Variable Rate Tariffs
Flexible tariffs with no exit fees that follow the Ofgem price cap. Your rates can change quarterly but you're free to switch supplier anytime without penalties.
Best for: Flexibility, switching without fees
Green Energy Tariffs
Electricity generated from 100% renewable sources like wind, solar, and hydro. Support environmental sustainability while powering your home cleanly.
Best for: Environmental consciousness, renewable energy
Economy 7 Tariffs
Two-rate tariff with cheaper electricity overnight (typically 00:30-07:30). Ideal if you use storage heaters or can run appliances at night.
Best for: Storage heaters, night-time usage
Switching Energy Suppliers
Compare Accurately
Use accurate annual usage figures (from previous bills) rather than estimates. This ensures you compare like-for-like and avoid nasty surprises. Dual fuel deals bundling gas and electricity often offer better value.
Check Exit Fees
Some fixed-rate contracts charge exit fees if you switch before the term ends (typically £30-60 per fuel). Calculate whether savings outweigh any exit fees before switching mid-contract.
Direct Debit Discounts
Paying by monthly direct debit typically saves £50-100 per year versus paying quarterly by cash or cheque. Online account management often provides additional discounts.
Smart Meters
Smart meters provide accurate readings and help monitor usage in real-time. They're free to install and required for some of the cheapest tariffs. Consider requesting installation with your new supplier.
