Get business electricity renewal quotes tailored to your meter
If your contract is ending, your supplier may move you onto an expensive out-of-contract or rollover rate. EnergyPlus helps UK businesses compare business electricity contract renewal quotes across a wide panel, so you can renew on terms that work for your cashflow and operational needs.
Whether you’re renewing a single site, managing multiple locations, or moving from a deemed/variable rate, we’ll help you compare options such as fixed-term tariffs, flexible purchasing (where available), and green electricity products backed by UK renewable certificates.
Renewal timing tip
Many suppliers allow renewal discussions up to 6 months before end date (varies by supplier/contract). Starting early can improve pricing options and reduces the risk of rolling onto higher rates.
Business electricity contract renewal: what it means in the UK
A renewal is your chance to agree a new set of rates and terms before your current business electricity contract ends. If you do nothing, your supplier may place you onto a rollover or out-of-contract rate, which can be significantly higher and harder to budget for.
Comparing quotes before your end date helps you weigh price certainty, contract length, green options, and the practicalities of billing and metering—without disrupting supply.
Key terms to recognise
- MPAN: your electricity supply number (often needed for accurate quotes)
- Day/Night rates: common with multi-rate meters
- Standing charge: daily fixed cost in addition to unit rates
- Contract end date: drives your renewal window and notice period

Your renewal completes

Do I need to switch supplier to get a better renewal rate?
Not always. Sometimes a competitive rate is available with your current supplier, especially if you engage early. Comparing is the quickest way to see whether staying or switching makes more commercial sense.
What you’ll need for accurate renewal pricing
You can start with just your contact details and postcode. For the most accurate business electricity contract renewal quotes, gather what you can from your latest bill or online portal:
Essential (best for quoting)
- MPAN (electricity supply number)
- Annual consumption (kWh) or recent usage history
- Meter type (single rate / day-night / half-hourly, if known)
- Contract end date and any notice period
Helpful (speeds up comparisons)
- Current unit rate(s) and standing charge
- Preferred contract length (e.g., 12/24/36 months)
- Payment preference (e.g., monthly direct debit)
- Green electricity preference (renewable-backed)
Compare renewal options: what to check before you sign
The cheapest headline unit rate isn’t always the best overall value. Use the checklist below to compare business electricity renewal quotes like-for-like.
| What to compare | Why it matters | What to look for |
|---|---|---|
| Unit rate(s) | Direct impact on cost per kWh. | Single vs day/night vs half-hourly structure; confirm your meter profile. |
| Standing charge | A high standing charge can negate a low unit rate—especially for low usage sites. | Compare total estimated annual cost, not just p/kWh. |
| Contract length | Longer terms can provide certainty but reduce flexibility. | Match term to your lease length, business plans and risk appetite. |
| Pass-through items | Some non-energy charges may be treated differently across contracts. | Ask what is included in rates and what may change during the term. |
| Credit & payment terms | Terms can affect cashflow and supplier eligibility. | Direct debit options, billing frequency, deposit/advance payments where applicable. |
| Green electricity | Supports sustainability reporting and procurement policy. | Renewable-backed supply and documentation (where offered by supplier). |

Common renewal mistakes (and how to avoid them)
Renewing too late
Waiting until the final weeks can limit supplier availability and increases the risk of a rollover rate. Start early and keep an eye on notice periods.
Ignoring standing charges
A lower unit rate can be outweighed by a higher standing charge, particularly for low consumption or seasonal businesses.
Mis-matched meter details
Quotes can vary if the meter type or profile is wrong. Using your MPAN and recent usage helps avoid surprises after sign-up.
Business electricity renewal FAQs
When should I renew my business electricity contract?
It depends on your supplier and contract terms, but many UK business contracts can be reviewed several months before the end date. Starting early gives you time to compare and prevents accidental rollover pricing.
Will my electricity supply stop if I change supplier at renewal?
No. Business electricity switching and renewals are administrative. Your site remains connected to the network and electricity continues to flow.
Do you cover multi-site and multiple MPANs?
Yes. If you have multiple locations, we can compare options across suppliers that support multi-site portfolios and help you align end dates where feasible.
What if I don’t know my MPAN?
That’s fine—start with the form. When we contact you, we can explain where to find it on a bill or help you identify the right information needed for accurate quoting.
Are renewal quotes the same across the UK?
Prices can vary based on your meter type, usage, supplier appetite and network area. That’s why comparing quotes against your specific MPAN and consumption is important.
Can you help with green business electricity options?
Yes. If you have sustainability targets, we’ll include renewable-backed electricity options where available and explain what documentation suppliers typically provide.
