Types of energy tariff
Fixed-rate
If you take out a fixed-rate contract with your supplier the cost of the energy will remain the same for the duration of the agreement. The contract can be from 1-5 years, with 12 – 24 months the most common.
Benefits
- You know what you will be paying over the period of the contract.
- If energy costs spike, these costs won’t be passed onto you.
Negatives
- If the cost of energy decreases, you will be paying a higher amount for your energy than, as the savings won’t be passed on to you.
- As you are in a contract you will likely have to pay an exit fee if you are looking to change suppliers.
Variable-rate
If you take out a variable-rate contract with your supplier the cost will follow the market average, so if costs go down so will your bills and vice-versa. You are not contracted in a variable rate tariff.
Benefits
- As you are not contracted to the supplier you are free to switch suppliers as often as you please.
- If the price of energy goes down, so will the cost of your bills.
Negatives
- If the cost of energy increases you will be paying a higher amount than when you started.

Can I switch to a renewable energy source?
Yes, there is an option to select only the energy suppliers offering renewable energy sources. It’s important to understand that not all renewable energy sources will be 100% renewable energy. For example, it’s very hard to produce renewable gas – although it can be done through decaying plants and food. So switching to a renewable energy company does not necessarily mean you will receive 100% green energy. However, a chunk of it will be, if you sign up for with a renewable energy company.
