Cheap Gas and Electric

Smart guide to cheap gas and electric for businesses.

Cheap gas and electric: beyond the headline price-

Chasing cheap gas and electric can backfire when bills include hidden extras or constant errors. Therefore, the most dependable suppliers balance fair pricing with reliable data, responsive support and clear contract management.

At Utility Network, independence is at the heart of everything we do. It empowers us to act with complete objectivity. We are always working in the best interests of our clients.

Calculate the real total cost-

A low unit rate means little if other charges quietly increase your annual spend. Always request itemised quotes and calculate a true yearly total before committing to any supplier. Make sure to check- 

  1. Unit rates per kWh for electricity and kWh or terms for gas.
  2. Daily or monthly standing charges for each meter and side.
  3. Network pass-throughs, losses and statutory levies listed clearly.
  4. Metering installation, communication and maintenance costs.
  5. Balancing or profile charges linked to the usage variations.
  6. Exit fees, deposits, credit terms and refund timelines.

Comparing the total and not just headline rates actually give a clearer picture of the actual value.

Prioritise service quality and reliability over anything else-

We can help you choose suppliers that offer you quick access to data, accurate invoices and named account handlers. Do not just run behind lower rates blindly. Check all the terms and conditions carefully before signing the contract.

Time your market entry

Energy prices fluctuate with weather, demand and market sentiment. Therefore structured purchasing helps manage exposure and any risk of losses. Stage purchases set market trigger points and pre-agreed volumes to avoid rushed decisions under any pressure. 

Boost efficiency before considering offsets- permanent efficiency improvements multiply the tariff savings and reduce volatility. Lower the thermostat slightly and maintain systems on a regular basis. Make flexible operations to off-peak periods. You can also use sub-metering for HVAC kitchens and production areas. Track weekly usage to sustain accountability. Utility Network helps you get the best deal in the market.

Go green without overspending

Verified renewable electricity and biomethane can actually enhance compliances and brand image without large premiums. Always request for certificates, audit data before promoting sustainability claims. If you are facing recurring billing errors, missing data or unclear charges, then make sure to change your supplier. Discuss with us for more details about it.
