Tariffs from home energy suppliers in London

Understand your options before you switch.

Fixed-rate tariffs

Lock your unit rate and standing charge for a set term (e.g., 12 or 24 months). Great for budgeting. Some plans may include exit fees if you leave early.

Variable-rate tariffs

Prices can go up or down with market changes. Usually no exit fees. Suitable if you prefer flexibility or expect rates to fall.

Prepayment (Pay-As-You-Go)

Top up via key, card, or app. Helps manage spending. We’ll show competitive prepay tariffs and any available support for installing a smart prepay meter.

Economy 7/10

Cheaper night-time electricity and higher daytime rates. Works well with storage heaters or EV off-peak charging. Provide usage split for accurate quotes.

Smart meter installation in London homes

Smart meters for London homes

Many London suppliers offer smart meters with in-home displays so you can track usage in real time. Smart meters can support half-hourly data for more accurate bills and enable smart prepay or time-of-use tariffs.

  • No extra cost for a standard smart meter installation from most suppliers.
  • Keep your existing tariff or switch to a compatible smart tariff.
  • Prepay customers can top up online or via app once upgraded.

Green energy options in London

Want to reduce your carbon footprint? Choose tariffs backed by 100% renewable electricity and, in some cases, carbon-offset gas. We highlight fuel mix disclosures and any green certifications provided by each supplier.

  • 100% renewable electricity tariffs available from multiple London suppliers.
  • Some plans include carbon-offset or biogas blends for gas.
  • Look for REGO-backed electricity and transparent environmental reporting.

Tip: cut usage without compromise

  • Use programmable thermostats; aim for 18–21°C.
  • Switch to LED bulbs and efficient appliances.
  • Insulate lofts and draught-proof windows and doors.
  • Use off-peak timers for EVs and washing machines (Economy 7).

Frequently asked questions

Answers to common queries about London energy suppliers and switching.

Will my energy be cut off during a switch?

No. Your gas and electricity continue as normal. The change happens in the background between suppliers.

How long does it take?

Most switches complete in 5–20 working days, depending on supplier processes and your cooling-off period.

Do I need a smart meter?

No, but smart meters provide accurate readings and unlock additional tariff types. You can switch with a standard meter, too.

What affects my London bill?

Usage, property efficiency, meter type, payment method (e.g., Direct Debit), and regional standing charges all contribute to your total cost.

Can renters switch suppliers?

Yes, if you pay the energy bill directly. Check your tenancy agreement for any clauses, and inform your landlord of changes.

What about prepayment meters?

We show competitive prepay tariffs and can help you explore switching to smart prepay or credit meters where eligible.
