Industry overview
The UK energy market is now more competitive than ever.
The recent deregulation of the electricity and gas supply
industries has brought about cost and service benefits to
business and domestic consumers. All users of electricity
and mains gas throughout Great Britain can now choose to
take their gas and electricity from a range of suppliers.
You have a choice.
You do not need to switch, but your ex-monopoly suppliers
may not offer the best price or service, or the package
that best suits you. With our calculator, you'll be able
to compare the prices and service ratings of your existing
suppliers with those of every other supplier available.
The Office of Gas and Electricity Markets - Ofgem, is the
independent regulator of the two energy markets. All gas
and electricity suppliers must operate under a license from
Ofgem and are required to protect the interest of customers
and promote competition.
