Energy isn’t cheap, but it doesn’t have to be prohibitively expensive. Switching to a different tariff could save you money on your business’s gas bill, which could be vital if you’re looking to keep a tight rein on costs.

Deal with your business energy supply in the same way that you would deal with your home energy supply – compare business energy suppliers and switch as regularly as possible.

The size of your business affects which tariffs you can get because some energy companies only supply businesses of certain sizes.

Types of businesses that can be covered include:

Small: suited to businesses with low gas usage and micro businesses. Check to see if yours is a micro business

Large: suited to businesses with high gas usage – for example, restaurants or companies with a large space to heat

Multi-site: aimed at businesses that need energy at more than one location. You usually get a discount if you opt for multi-site service

You can usually choose a contract of between 12 and 60 months, but some contracts run for longer. Think about:

• How long you plan to stay at your current business premises

• Whether the size of your business is likely to change

• How often you’d like to be able to switch supplier

You can’t switch supplier until your contract ends once you sign up to one, so compare as many quotes as possible to get the cheapest rate.

Here’s how to switch your business gas

Business gas prices vary between suppliers depending on your business circumstances, so you need to get quotes from different energy companies to find the best deal.
