Business gas

Business gas: compare prices and contracts

Gas is always quoted on its own, never blended with electricity. We check your unit rate, standing charge, VAT and contract term against your real usage, and your contract sits in your portal with every other service.

  • Quoted separately from electricity
  • Unit rate and standing charge as printed
  • End date and notice window checked first
What we check

Six things on every gas bill.

Before we quote, we read your current gas bill line by line, so a new price is compared like for like.

Unit rate, exactly as printed

Your gas unit rate as it appears on the bill, never averaged with your electricity.

End date and notice window

We check when your contract ends and when notice is due before anything else.

Standing charge

A low unit rate can hide a high daily charge, so every comparison includes both.

Meter and supply number

Your gas meter and supply number, so quotes match the supply you actually have.

Climate Change Levy and VAT

Totals compared like for like, with the taxes included and stated once.

Your real usage

Prices worked out from the kWh on your bills, including how your use changes through the year.

How we show it

Current and new, side by side.

Every option sits next to what you pay now, using the same usage, so you can see the difference for yourself.

  • Unit rate exactly as printed, never blended
  • Standing charge, Climate Change Levy and VAT included
  • Contract length stated, and the total stated once

Questions

Business gas, answered.

Can I get one contract for both gas and electricity?

You can enter into a gas contract and an electricity contract with the same supplier, but they remain two separate contracts, each with its own rates. We always quote them separately so you can see each price on its own.

What do I need to send you?

A recent gas bill for each site, with all pages. If you would like us to speak to your current supplier for you, we will also ask you to sign a letter of authority.

We are already out of contract. What now?

Out-of-contract or deemed rates are usually higher than negotiated rates, according to Ofgem. Send us your latest bill and we will look at your options straight away. There is no cooling-off period once you agree a business energy contract, so we go through the terms with you before you sign.

Do businesses pay 20% VAT on gas?

Usually, yes: business fuel and power is standard rated unless it qualifies for the reduced rate. Very low-use supplies can fall under the de minimis rules in HMRC VAT Notice 701/19. Your bill shows which rate you are paying.
