How We Can Help With Energy Procurement
We work with an incredible panel of business energy suppliers to bring you the best prices for your business gas and business electricity. You can expect to receive a selection of same-day pricing. Depending on your requirements, you could be entered into a tendering process, where we submit your business case to our supplier panel.
Once submitted, the energy suppliers will compete to win your contract by offering their best prices. You can then choose which supplier you would like to work with and we will take care of the entire onboarding, including any cancellations for your current contracts.

Types Of Energy Procurement We Offer
You are in the right place if you are looking for fixed or flexible contracts for your business gas and electricity. Look below at how our business energy services can help you save even more on your monthly bills.
Fixed Gas And Electric
Get fixed-price gas and electricity across your entire contract. The fixed pricing can be held for up to 5 years, and reviewed within 12 months before the end of your contract. This guarantees cost certainty over the entire agreement.
Passthrough Gas And Electric
With pass-through gas and electricity, wholesale charges are fixed and non-commodity charges are passed through at the current rate. This means your contract could lower your energy spend if you do not need to work to a fixed budget and are more involved in your energy management.
Flexible Gas And Electric
Flexible price gas and electricity contracts allow you to take advantage of any price drops in the fluctuating energy market. The flexibility can spread any risk over different purchase points, giving you complete control over your energy purchasing.
Public Procurement
We also offer public procurement, whereby government departments or agencies can secure great energy deals through our supplier panel. Our team of public procurement experts have incredible knowledge and expertise with EU compliance, to help you every step of the way.
Energy Procurement for Large Businesses
Businesses looking for a half-hourly meter are generally considered high-consumption users. It may be worth considering a bespoke electricity tariff that falls into creating an energy procurement strategy.
We'll work with you to understand how you use gas and electricity to create a custom tariff that saves you time, and money and helps you reach sustainability goals.
An energy procurement process is as simple as being strategic around sourcing multiple business electricity quotes, analysing the market to understand when the best time to switch is and choosing the right tariff. Our bespoke tariff team can find great quotes from trusted UK suppliers that tick all these boxes.
Energy Procurement Tariffs
We'll not go into all the details of more 'traditional' business electricity tariffs as these can be found on our home electricity page. Here are some tariffs that some large consumption users choose:
Flexible Approach Tariff
If you purchase gas and electricity in bulk you can get cheaper prices that are at wholesale price or close to that price. This may involve purchasing your energy at least a year in advance.
Benefits of Energy Procurement
You may already have an energy procurement process in place, and if that is the case you're ready to work with us to source the most competitive deal.
If you're looking to set up an energy procurement process, we can help your business with some guidance and then sourcing a great energy deal.
Here are some of the benefits of implementing an energy procurement process:
- Saves money- the obvious one is that it can save you money by comparing multiple suppliers bidding to supply your business with a high-consumption contract. We will assist in getting you the best prices.
- Forecasting- having a process in place will lead to better planning and financial forecasting as you will know the seasons that you'll likely be spending more on energy.
- Data- you will have access to data management tools that help you identify specific times when energy usage is high to flag potential savings and efficiencies.
- Pro-active renewals- you will have a process of monitoring the energy market and your renewal window to lock in prices at the best rate possible.
