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.

Would An Energy Consultancy Work For You?

by D-ENERGi
 

Accessing cheaper energy deals is what firms should do when their supplier’s current contract comes up for renewal but this is also a good time to consider an energy consultancy having a look to see what savings can be made and which tariff would best suit their needs.

Indeed, while many firms will be happy to visit several online comparison websites to find better energy deals, they could save themselves a lot of time by simply speaking with energy consultants who will know what the latest deals and tariffs are.

The consultants can also use their experience to see whether the firm is on a suitable tariff by simply looking at their current bills.

But an energy consultancy would do simply more than just finding some of the best business energy deals around.

Energy services provided by a consultancy

The energy services provided by a consultancy will also look at introducing energy efficiencies that will help the organisation save even more money on their energy bills and boost their environmental credentials at the same time.

The consultants will do this by looking at how the firm currently operates and then highlight ways of doing what they do in a better way without using so much energy.

They will also highlight energy saving measures that will be easy and cost-effective to introduce.

Ultimately, the energy consultant will bring about changes that will deliver long-term cost savings so, in addition to a cheaper energy tariff, the potential savings being made by firms and organisations could be substantial.

Firms have never switched energy supplier

Indeed, a survey by the Competition and Markets Authority underlines this issue by revealing that 40% of firms have never switched energy supplier.

This means they have probably been paying more than they need to for their energy needs because they are on a ‘deemed’ contract where the rates are more expensive.

By simply switching energy supplier, an organisation could save a substantial amount of money and the amount will vary depending on how much energy the firm uses and where they are in the country. The size of the firm may also have an input here as well.

It may also be a requirement from the firm to boost their green credentials by switching to a supplier of renewable energy and the energy consultancy will be able to arrange this since there are specialist renewable energy suppliers available.
