Getting a great deal on your business energy costs may mean your firm will need to switch between half hourly electricity suppliers to achieve this. This is easier than it sounds and can be done seamlessly while lowering overheads at the same time. But, there will be firms looking for a cheaper business electricity supply who may not appreciate what the term ‘half-hour electricity suppliers’ means. Half hourly electricity meters installed Essentially, large business users of electricity will have half hourly electricity meters installed on their premises so the data of your usage will be sent automatically to the supplier. Obviously, this data is sent every 30 minutes and some electricity suppliers may refer to the meter as being an ‘HH meter’ – both terms mean the same thing. There are some positive reasons for having a half hourly meter installed, though for many firms they are now mandatory, and best one reason is that your electricity usage will be monitored. This is helpful for a potential new supplier because they can easily find out when your peak periods of use are and then tailor their offering to meet this need. The bills that follow will also be accurate and remove the need for estimated bills and for someone to read your business meter. Supplier will offer half hourly electricity prices By knowing how much energy you use, and when, means the supplier will offer half hourly electricity prices that will tend to be cheaper than your current supplier is offering. It helps too that there is software available for businesses to work out when they are using electricity and they can use their HH meter data for this. In addition, as well as getting cheaper prices for half hourly electricity means a firm can also access prices for several premises more easily if they need to. This may mean that the supplier will offer an even cheaper rate to meet your business electricity needs. Prompt a business to investigate where it is using its energy The HH meter data may also prompt a business to investigate where it is using its energy – an energy consultancy service can also do this – so your usage levels will fall. This will have an impact on your bills and you’ll be able to boost your green credentials too by not wasting energy during the day.   If you need to know more about how to switch between half hourly electricity suppliers, then it’s time to contact D-Energi who can find the best offers and also deal with the switchover process to ensure there’s no loss of supply between suppliers.

When it comes to a firm switching their business electricity supplier then it will pay to speak with the experts to find the best deal for your needs. This will mean speaking with the friendly D-Energi team to understand how the market works and they can access the latest deals and offers quickly. There are lots of suppliers in the business electricity market and they have a wide range of offers though they must tailor their offering to your own business’s needs. But how do you know whether this is the best offer available? Find the best business electricity rates It’s fairly simple to carry out research to find the best business electricity rates and that’s to visit one of the comparison websites to see what the market rate for your firm could be. There are a number of factors that need to be considered including your firm’s energy usage, for example, when you’re low and peak periods of use are and your location may also have an impact on price. The website may also not be searching the entire market to find the best deals and you may be surprised at finding what appears to be a great deal but still needing to speak with a potential supplier directly. That’s because they have to offer a bespoke deal for your business. The market for supplying business electricity As mentioned earlier, the market for supplying business electricity is now more competitive so prices have fallen as a result but still, many firms do not make the effort to switch. This could be an expensive mistake since their current supplier may be rolling them onto a more expensive contract automatically when there are big savings to be made. Also, some firms may believe that the switchover process is more complicated than it is and they prefer to stay with their supplier because of this. The UK government says that around 40% of firms have never switched supplier so it’s likely they are paying over the odds for their business electricity needs and they are not helping stimulate competition within the marketplace which will automatically lead to lower prices. It also needs to be appreciated that while many firms may choose to remain with the ‘big six’, those are the better-known energy suppliers, there are better deals available from firms you are unlikely to have heard of previously. This should not put you off from switching between business electricity suppliers.   However, the experts at D-Energi will be able to explain more and probably find a cheaper deal than you currently enjoy and they can also deal with the switchover process so it’s a seamless transition between your business electricity supplier.

With the prospect of energy prices in the UK increasing over the short-term, there will be growing numbers of firms looking for cheaper business energy prices as a matter of urgency. However, these firms and organisations will need to check their current supplier’s contract to ensure they can switch without having to face a hefty administration charge for switching to a new supplier outside of the ‘window’. All firms should really investigate what the current market rates for their supplies of business gas and electricity are to ensure they are not paying more than they need to. This exercise could save substantial amounts of money every year. Switching to a new business energy supplier There is no doubt that by switching to a new business energy supplier is a quick and easy way to enjoy lower prices for your energy supply. The big bonus for lowering prices is that your overheads will also fall and profitability will be boosted. This in itself should be an incentive for switching and the experts at the Business Utility Hub will find the latest deals and offers and also take care of the switchover process as well. Alternatively, you can find a new business energy supplier by contacting a supplier directly to see what they will charge or use a comparison website. The downside to using a website is that they may not have access to all of the latest deals and offers and, indeed, may not even be searching the entire market of suppliers. This means you may well be missing out on better deals. The UK’s business energy supply market Also, the UK’s business energy supply market is a competitive one and there is a lot of competition between suppliers to get new customers. So, while it sounds easy to find a new supplier it’s important that your business gets a deal that best meets your needs. Also, for those who are looking to reduce costs over the long term, some suppliers will also offer fixed deals for one, two and even up to five years in some cases so it’s easy to predict cash flow. For many, that will be of huge help but you may that your business should be checked every year to ensure it is the best deal possible.   There’s a lot to recommend carrying out the research to find cheaper business energy prices but it’s not just about cheap prices; there are also other services which may help a firm lower their energy use so their bills fall even further and for more information on this, speak with the D-Energi team.

It might not be a question that is on every business owner’s lips, but would your firm benefit from an energy consultancy? While we are all looking for cheaper energy bills, there are other steps we can take to lower our energy consumption levels and boost our bill savings even more. Also, we need to appreciate that by reducing energy bills for our business means our profitability will be increased. However, an energy consultancy is not just about finding a cheaper energy supplier, though that’s an important element of what consultants do, but it is also about minimising energy costs with other tactics. One important element is that an energy consultancy can validate the tariff and energy deal you are currently on and, potentially, correct invoices that are wrong. Consultants providing the energy services have the expertise It also helps that the consultants providing the energy services have the expertise and experience when it comes to negotiating with energy providers to find a deal that best meets your needs. They also understand how the energy supply market works so when this market becomes volatile and prices begin to fluctuate, they may recommend that you fix your energy prices for one, two and even up to five years. By fixing your energy costs, you will be able to predict your cash flow more effectively for paying energy bills which some firms may find a big help. Also, the energy consultancy will look at the energy you have used over recent years, help with budgeting and then monitor what your energy usage is to see where greater savings can be made. For example, it may be that your peak periods of use can be switched to off-peak periods where prices are lower. Energy consultancy is not just focused on one business premises The energy consultancy is not just focused on one business premises and for those firms with several outlets then a consultancy can look at how these premises work and introduce ways to save energy. An energy consultant is not simply going to recommend switching off lights and using less water when boiling a kettle, though these are important issues, they may also look at the electrical equipment your firm uses and recommend replacing them with new equipment that uses less energy. However, any firm undertaking an energy consultancy is not just looking to lower their bills but also boosting their environmental credentials as well. This is an increasingly important element of doing business today. If you would like to know how your firm can benefit from an energy consultancy and also enjoy cheaper energy bills, then it’s time to contact the friendly D-Energi team who have the experience and expertise to help you.
