Out-of-contract rates and poorly negotiated deals are leaving thousands of businesses in the UK overspending on their gas and electricity contracts. With so many political, economic and social issues to deal with over recent years such as Brexit, Covid 19 and changes in government and policies, many business owners have been far too busy with other priorities to properly consider and scrutinise their energy spend. As a result, they are now overspending, having signed non-optimal contracts which could have been less had they shopped around.
Comparing business energy prices
UK businesses that don’t shop around and fully scrutinise the market for their electricity and gas are regularly paying higher prices than they need to be. Comparing the market and prices can save a business thousands of pounds. For businesses with larger spends, employing the services of an energy expert with familiarity of the market and access to the best prices and exclusive rates can potentially save a huge amount of time and money.
But why are businesses not comparing energy prices?
Business owners are typically busy doing what they do best – running their business. Comparing energy prices can be very time consuming and if done alone, it is only possible to find the time to compare a few suppliers at most. When only comparing a few suppliers there’s no guarantee that these suppliers are anywhere near the most competitive on the market. Price comparison sites can increase the amount of prices to choose from, but there are still limitations. Comparison sites are unable to cater for individual requirements such as pricing certain types of meters or dealing with multi-sites.

The most optimal way for business owners to get the best rates on the market when renewing their business energy contract is to consider a business energy consultant such as Resolve Energy.
