The Energy Bill Relief Scheme

We would like to take this opportunity to reassure our prospective and existing customers and clarify the following on the Energy Bill Relief Scheme (EBRS):

  • The Energy Bill Relief Scheme (EBRS) applies to fixed contracts agreed on or after 1st December 2021 as well as to deemed, variable and flexible tariffs and contracts. It will apply to energy usage from 1st October 2022 to 31st March 2023, running for an initial six-month period for all non domestic energy users..
  • All energy suppliers will apply the same discount. This discount will automatically appear on your statements. Customers do not need to apply for the scheme or contact us.
  • The BEIS department recommends all customers continue to enter into fixed price agreements as normal to shield businesses from future wholesale price increases. This way we can ensure all our customers are protected from the volatility in the current wholesale market.
  • For customers who qualify for the Energy Bill Relief Scheme we kindly ask all qualifying customers to provide us with monthly gas and / or electricity meter reads until end of the scheme. This should be done ideally on the first day of the month or no later than the 10th.This will be a great help to get your bills as accurate as possible and ensure we apply the right discount throughout the scheme period.

How to Compare Business Energy Quotes

by D-ENERGi
 

If your firm or organisation needs to switch on to cheaper energy deals then this article will explain more about how to compare business energy quotes to access the savings.

Every business should be looking at their energy overheads on a regular basis because this is a quick and effective way to make savings though not every firm will do so.

One government survey has highlighted that 40% of businesses in the UK have never bothered switching which means they are probably paying much more than they need to for their energy needs.

In many cases, their current supplier will have moved them automatically onto a ‘deemed’ contract which tends to have higher rates.

Compare business electricity prices between providers

With energy prices fluctuating on a regular basis, it will pay to compare business electricity prices between providers and then undertake a switch.

It helps that there are comparison sites available for a business to compare the offerings between providers, but the site being used may not be searching the whole market.

While you may access a cheaper deal, there may be better offerings available elsewhere, plus you will still need to speak with somebody because the energy provider must offer a bespoke contract.

You could also contact a potential energy supplier directly, give them a few details and see what they will offer you as a new customer.

Compare business gas prices between suppliers

This exercise also extends to those who are looking to compare business gas prices between suppliers.

As with electricity, gas prices also fluctuate and these prices vary because of a range of factors including world events, demand and also the size of your business and its location.

Also, your business credit score may be taken into account to get the better deals.

Another issue for those who are looking for a new business energy deal is to consider a longer contract, for example, two or three years rather than the standard one-year contract because a supplier may offer a cheaper deal for doing so.

There’s no doubt that when it comes to sourcing a new energy deal that it can be a time-consuming and confusing process, particularly for a busy business owner, but there are ways of achieving a great deal and have someone to take care of the switchover process.

That is to speak to the team of experts at D-Energi about how they can compare business energy quotes on your behalf to deliver impressive and realistic savings.
