Business gas suppliers, tariffs and prices per kwh
A deemed rate is applied by a supplier for any energy that is used when a contract is not completed. This is usually a 30 day rolling rate that can fluctuate. This is not to be confused with a variable price plan (VVP) which can fluctuate regularly. Deemed rates are generally much more expensive therefore it is advisable not to allow your contract to run its course without agreeing another up to one year prior to the end date.

Switch to green business gas
With rising carbon emissions and the increasing problems caused by global warming, switching to green business gas can make a huge impact. The fuels used in green business gas come from sources that won’t run out, unlike fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are short in supply, which could lead to higher prices as they become harder to obtain and this can also lead to you paying higher prices for your business gas.
Our green gas experts can advise you on options that suit your business. We have contacts with some of the UK’s largest gas suppliers and specialists in green energy so we can negotiate green gas deals to suit all your needs.

Rob says that thanks to the competitive rates secured by Utility Bidder in his studio, it would actually be cheaper to live there than at home! “We pay about £30 a month for gas during the winter and around £25 a month for electricity – and that’s despite having a lot of energy guzzling equipment such as studio lights and fan heaters. Our energy bills at home are far more expensive!”
Paul Kay was fantastic in securing us a great deal and explaining everything in full. Thanks and would wholeheartedly recommended.
Ben Jones
Excellent service from Kenny in the Manchester office, he worked hard to find the best price for me and explained everything along the way.
Will definitely use him again in the future and would recommend.

Frequently Asked Questions
Simply reducing usage is a good place to start, however, if you’re paying high rates then this can counteract all that hard work. The business gas market is highly competitive, subsequently, this requires getting quotes from the countless amounts of gas suppliers.
Alternatively, you can ask Utility Bidder to get immediate pricing form UK gas suppliers, giving you competitive pricing whether you look to switch energy.
Most gas suppliers give you a window of between 6 and 12 months to secure a new contract. Securing a contract with a new supplier in due time, before your contract end date, will help prevent you from paying out of contract rates, also improving the ease of transition between one supplier to another.
Securing a long term, fixed rate tariff gas contract early could help to protect you from the elements, although it can’t be avoided forever, unfortunately.
We recommend securing a new business gas deal early to avoid disappointment. Switching supplier can provide good savings for your business.
Finding the best business gas quote can be difficult. There’s many new suppliers emerging in the market, plus the big 6 and other established suppliers.
Due to no two businesses being the same, all business gas cases should be treat differently. If you attain prices from a price comparison website or from a price book, then we’re confident that it’s not the best deal for your company. Average prices of gas and electricity fluctuate – you could potentially make savings by switching.
So what is the best way to proceed? If you have the time and negotiating skills, then calling all the suppliers would be the best approach. However, we understand that running a business is time consuming. This is where Utility Bidder come in! Allow us to negotiate the best gas deal for your business.
There are two types of gas meters – digital and dial:
Digital – When reading the meter, read from left to right, ignoring red figures. Also ignore any zero’s and digits after the decimal point.
Dial – Again, when reading a digital meter, read from left to right, if the point is between numbers then take the lower figure. If this is between 0 and 9 then take the number 9 for the reading.
Ignore red readings.
Business gas prices are influenced by usage – If your company uses large amounts of energy, then you can generate efficiencies in the rates that you receive. Business customers usually pay a higher rate of VAT which is around 20%.
Businesses also have to consider climate change levy costs. Chat to our team about your commercial gas supply today.
Brokers / consultants take away the stress of comparing business gas quotes, securing contracts and resolving any issues away from your business. It gives you peace of mind when searching for gas deals that the paperwork and supplier communication will be predominantly completed for you.

If you’re moving premises, your business gas contract could potentially be terminated. If Utility Bidder is managing your account, we can advise your business on the correct procedure.
