6 Jan The first thing to appreciate for any checklist that will help deliver cheap business energy deals is that all providers will offer a bespoke tariff.
This means that the suppliers are working to different criteria and helps explain why firms located close to your premises may be paying completely different rates.
You need to understand: A provider will need to know the industry you work in and how much energy you consume every year.
How many employees who have and whether there are any plans for expansion.
Whether you need an energy supply to one premises or more than one premises.
Checklist to access a cheap business electricity deal
The checklist to access a cheap business electricity deal will also need to include the fact that the size of your business will dictate whether a provider will even quote for meeting your needs and why the rates vary.
Essentially, if you’re a large consumer of electricity then your firm will enjoy lower rates than a micro business will access.
On top of this, you’ll need to calculate what the average cost of a new commercial electricity contract will be over the course of the year.
This is relatively easy to do since you use the price per kWh (kilowatt-hour) being quoted and apply that to your average consumption level.
However, you also need to calculate what the daily standing charge will be since this varies – and it could have a big impact on how much you can pay or even save on your commercial energy rates.
Accessing a cheap business gas deal
The checklist for accessing a cheap business gas deal is the same as it is for electricity.
It’s important that you get as many quotes from potential providers as is possible to ensure you get the best deal for meeting your firm’s needs.
That’s easier said than done and should you decide to contact providers directly then this will take a lot of time and you could decide to use a commercial energy comparison website.
While these websites are popular, they are probably not searching the entire market, so you should see how many firms are being approached for a quote.
If you want to ask the entire marketplace to quote for meeting your firm’s needs and ensure that you’ll get the best cheap business energy deal, then you need to speak with the experts at D-Energi to act on your behalf.

1 Jan The main reason for any firm to compare business energy per kWh (kilowatt-hour) prices is to see how much they can save before they switch to a new provider.
This is always a worthwhile exercise, and all firms and organisations should undertake doing so every year.
The best time to search the market is when your provider reveals what your next contract rates are and this is the nudge for checking other supplier’s rates.
And as a business owner, you will appreciate how important it is to keep your overheads low and by switching providers, you could drastically reduce your energy bills.
Compare business electricity per kWh prices effectively
However, you’ll need to compare business electricity per kWh prices effectively to ensure that you really are reducing your costs.
This means there are two prices that a potential supplier will quote and you’ll need to understand what both of them mean. They are: The unit price: This is the amount your firm will pay for each unit of electricity, this is measured in kWh (kilowatt-hours) that your business will use. In addition, this unit price can be fixed for the contract’s duration or it can be variable, so it varies with the wholesale market price.
The standing charge: This is not a fixed fee and it’s an amount you pay daily for the National Grid to deliver electricity to your firm’s premises. The big issue is that when you come to compare prices per kWh you may focus entirely on the unit price without realising that there is a much higher standing charge which will eradicate any savings you could be making.
Save on business electricity bills
When you need to save on business electricity bills, you may be surprised how varied the tariffs being quoted are between suppliers.
That’s because they use different criteria to put their energy contracts together. The issues they will look at include: Your business type: the industry you work in and how much energy you consume will play a big part
Business size: the larger businesses will have the power to negotiate a better tariff per kWh because they are consuming much more energy than a small firm will.
Expansion plans: what your plans for the future are for your business also play an important role that a potential provider needs to take into account. For more help and information on how to compare business energy per kWh prices effectively, then you need to speak with the experts at D-Energi.

Cheaper business electricity prices

And while it is not possible to access a dual fuel deal for business, you can have the same supplier deliver a bespoke offering for both gas and electricity supply.

16 Dec The main aim of implementing a business energy comparison exercise is to ensure that your firm or organisation never overpays for its energy needs.
If you haven’t bothered switching for several years, then it’s likely that you are paying more than is necessary – though you will not be alone if so.
Indeed, one government survey highlights that 40% of firms have not looked into switching their energy providers and are probably paying more with their supplier than a new customer will do.
And while it can be a time-consuming and frustrating process, the friendly team at D-Energi offers a service that will help take the hassle from switching your energy utilities.
Have experts undertake your business electricity comparison
This means that having experts undertake your business electricity comparison for you will see the entire market being checked to ensure you get the best price possible.

It’s also difficult comparing the various offers on a like-for-like basis because the deals from providers will be bespoke.
This service from D-Energi is free and if you’ve already used an online energy comparison site but believe there are cheaper deals and tariffs available, then it’s time to contact the team and put them to the test.

13 Dec You may have spent time contacting various energy providers or have used an energy comparison site, and now it’s time to review your business energy quote.
But there might still be a niggle that there could be a better deal available – perhaps one with incentives that you are unaware of.
There’s no doubt that most busy business owners will not enjoy having to source and then compare energy quotes for meeting their needs, but there are easy ways to deal with this process and enjoy the best energy deal.
This process of reviewing is important – whether your energy costs are a big overhead or not – because knowing how to compare energy prices effectively means you will deliver the savings you are expecting.
Sourcing a business electricity quote using a comparison site
Basically, when it comes to sourcing a business electricity quote using a comparison site, which is a popular route for many firms, there are some downsides to this.
Firstly, you may not be aware of how many potential electricity providers are being approached to quote, so it’s always worth checking beforehand.
This means it’s unlikely that the electricity comparison site is checking the entire marketplace and instead will have a restricted number of providers who will quote for your business.
This also makes it difficult finding those suppliers offering incentives such as a dedicated account manager to help you run your electricity account or even an energy consultancy.
Having an energy consultant look at how your firm uses electricity and gas is a great idea for two reasons: You will get to reduce consumption levels and enjoy bigger savings
By reducing consumption, you will boost your environmental credentials.
Firms wanting a cheaper business gas quote
The same tactics also apply to those firms wanting a cheaper business gas quote and you may be intimidated by the time it takes to contact potential suppliers directly.
It’s likely there are better deals available elsewhere and if you use a business gas comparison site, there are still the same issues with the number of providers being asked to quote.
Instead, you should spend a few minutes speaking with the D-Energi team and have them search the entire business gas and electricity supply market on your behalf to find a deal that meets your needs and reduces costs.
They can also find suppliers offering the other incentives and perks to attract you as a customer.
For more help and information about how you can review your business energy quote to ensure it’s the cheapest possible, then you need to speak with the D-Energi team as soon as possible.

11 Dec When you need to find a better business gas supplier it is important to appreciate that the market is competitive and there are lots of suppliers to choose from.
In addition, the main aim of any exercise to switch gas suppliers is to find a tariff that will make your bills as cheap as possible.
However, business gas providers offer various services and perks, so it’s always worth looking at what they might have to offer you other than the cheaper price.
And there’s no doubt that this can be a daunting undertaking to switch your business energy provider but it doesn’t have to be difficult, particularly if you use the expertise of the D-Energi team.
Enjoying cheap business gas rates
The first issue to appreciate about enjoying cheap business gas rates is that if you haven’t switched previously or if you’re on a standard tariff, then it’s likely you are paying more than you have to.
The best time to check the market for cheap deals is when your current provider gets in touch to tell you of your next contract details.
You can then search the market of suppliers and choose the tariff that will best meet your firm’s needs and switch to that supplier.
However, the process of finding a new provider can be as complicated as you want it to be, since contacting suppliers separately can be confusing and you may find if you restrict your search to the ‘Big Six’, that is the well-known suppliers, then their deals may be similar.
There are also issues using a business gas comparison website because there may be a restricted number of suppliers they approach and you will still need to negotiate directly with that provider.
Find a great business gas tariff
Instead, to find a great business gas tariff that reduces your bills and offers other perks and services, you really should speak with D-Energi.
That’s because, unlike a gas comparison site, they will search the entire market on your behalf and also seek out those providers offering other incentives.
Among these may be an energy consultancy to help reduce consumption levels so your savings are even greater or you may request a dedicated account manager to deal with any potential issues.
You should also be reassured that the switching process is similar to that for our homes and it’s a smooth and uncomplicated process with no loss of supply.
For more help and information to find a better business gas supplier and reduce your firm’s overheads and to boost profitability, you should speak with the D-Energi team today.
