We compare a wide range of UK home energy tariffs so you can see suitable options in one place, including fixed and variable deals.
Quotes that match your household
Your region and usage matter. We use your postcode and a few details to produce a quote that’s relevant to your home, not a generic headline rate.
Support from start to switch
Need help understanding standing charges, exit fees, or whether a fixed deal makes sense? We’ll walk you through it in plain English.
No disruption to your supply
Switching supplier doesn’t mean your gas or electricity gets cut off. Your energy keeps flowing while the admin is handled in the background.
Clear comparison criteria
We look beyond unit rates. A good quote considers standing charges, tariff length, payment options, and any fees or restrictions.
UK-focused guidance
From the Energy Price Cap to Economy 7 and regional pricing, we explain what matters for UK homes so you can decide confidently.
How an energy quote works in the UK
A home energy quote estimates what you could pay with a particular tariff. The most helpful comparisons account for both the unit rate (price per kWh) and the standing charge (daily fixed cost), then estimate your monthly or annual bill based on typical usage.
Because prices and availability can differ by region and meter type, your postcode helps match you to the right tariff set and network area.
- Tell us your details — name, contact info and postcode.
- We compare tariffs across a wide range of UK suppliers for home energy.
- Review your options — fixed vs variable, payment method, contract length and key terms.
- Choose next steps — switch, set a reminder for renewal, or ask us to explain the differences.
Moving home? You can still get a quote — it’s often a good time to review tariffs so you don’t stay on an expensive default rate longer than needed.
What you’ll need for an accurate quote
You can request a quote with just your postcode and contact details, but if you have the following to hand your results can be more precise:
From your latest bill (ideal)
- Annual usage in kWh (gas and/or electricity)
- Current unit rates and standing charges
- Your tariff name and end date (if fixed)
- Payment method (direct debit, prepayment, etc.)
If you don’t have a bill
- How many bedrooms and occupants
- Typical heating type (gas boiler, electric heating, heat pump)
- Whether you have a smart meter or Economy 7
- Any preferences (fixed price certainty vs flexibility)
Don’t know your usage? That’s common. We can estimate typical consumption for your household size and help you refine it once you locate a bill.
Understanding tariff types (so you can choose well)
When you compare energy quotes, the cheapest option on paper isn’t always the best fit. Use this guide to understand the common tariff types and what to watch out for.
| Tariff type | Best for | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| Fixed | People who want price certainty for a set period (e.g. 12–24 months). | Exit fees, end date, what happens after it ends, and any restrictions. |
| Variable | People who want flexibility and may switch quickly if prices change. | How often prices can change and whether there are any notice periods. |
| Standard variable (SVT) | Short-term default when a fix ends or when you move into a property. | Typically not the best long-term value; consider quoting before you settle. |
| Economy 7 / multi-rate | Homes with storage heaters or significant off-peak usage. | Day vs night rates and your usage split; it can cost more if you use energy mainly in the day. |
| Prepayment | Pay-as-you-go customers, often with specific meter types. | Eligibility, meter compatibility and whether switching requires a meter exchange. |
Standing charge vs unit rate: A lower unit rate isn’t always cheaper overall if the standing charge is higher. Always compare the estimated cost for your usage.
Common mistakes when getting an energy quote (and how to avoid them)
Comparing only the unit rate
Always factor in the standing charge and your expected usage. A “cheaper” unit rate can still mean a higher bill overall.
Not checking tariff end dates
If you’re on a fixed deal, switching too early could trigger exit fees. Switching too late can mean spending months on a more expensive default tariff.
Using the wrong usage estimate
If your household has changed (new baby, working from home, extension), update your estimate so the quote matches reality.
Overlooking meter type
Economy 7 and prepayment meters can limit which tariffs are suitable. We’ll help ensure the quote fits your setup.
Energy quote FAQs
Will my supply be interrupted if I switch?
No. Switching supplier is an administrative change — your gas and electricity keep running. Your meter and pipes/wires stay the same.
How long does switching usually take?
Timescales vary by supplier and circumstances, but many switches complete within a few weeks. We’ll tell you what to expect for your situation.
Do you compare dual fuel and single fuel?
Yes. We can compare dual fuel quotes (gas + electricity) as well as electricity-only or gas-only, depending on your home setup.
Is a fixed tariff always better?
Not always. Fixed tariffs offer certainty but may include exit fees. Variable tariffs offer flexibility but prices can change. The “best” option depends on your priorities.
Can I get a quote if I have a prepayment meter?
Yes. Availability can depend on your meter type and supplier criteria. We’ll help you understand which tariffs are suitable and whether a meter exchange may be needed.
Why do you need my postcode?
Energy prices can vary by region. Your postcode helps match you to the correct network area and tariffs available for your home.
