Why compare business gas and electricity deals?
If you haven’t checked your business energy prices in a while, there’s a good chance you’re paying more than you should.
You might be:
- Out of contract or on a deemed rate, meaning you’re automatically placed on your supplier’s most expensive tariff.
- Nearing contract renewal, where your current fixed rate tariff may no longer be competitive.
- In a period of market fluctuation, and have the opportunity to lock in the best business gas and electricity rates if you act fast.
- On a plan that doesn’t reflect the times of day you use the most energy.
- Outgrowing the energy deal you agreed to.
- Using multiple premises or having high energy consumption without access to wholesale or commercial electricity rates.
Other reasons you should call us to review your current energy tariff:
- You’ve moved to new business premises, which often means automatic out-of-contract rates.
- You want to cut your carbon footprint with zero carbon electricity or green energy tariffs.
- You’re looking to save money and stabilise costs through fixed rate deals before prices rise again.
At Business Utility Hub, we monitor energy prices daily. When you call us, you'll be speaking to an energy market professional that has up-to-the-minute insight into exactly where the best deals can be found. We’ll be happy to compare the latest rates there and then, find your most competitive option and manage the entire switch process for you.

The types of tariffs to watch out for
Not all business energy tariffs are equal. Here are the main ones to be aware of:
- Standard Variable Tariff (SVT): this type of tariff means your unit costs and standing charge can vary depending on wholesale energy prices. An SVT generally has no exit fee.
- Deemed rates: The default tariff applied if you move into new premises without a contract - usually the most expensive.
- Out-of-contract rates: Applied when your old deal expires and no new one is in place. These should generally be avoided.
If you think you might be on one of these tariffs, there is a good chance that we can save you a significant amount of money. Call us now on 0800 781 2700.

FAQs about how to switch business energy suppliers
How long does the switching process take?
The switching process depends on your current contract position, supplier requirements and whether all the right information is available.
Some switches are straightforward. Others can take longer if details are missing, your current supplier raises an objection or your switch needs to align with your contract end date.
We’ll explain what needs to happen, manage the process where we can and keep you updated throughout.
How does the business energy comparison process work?
First, we’ll ask for a few details about your business, current supplier, usage and contract position.
We then compare business energy suppliers and review suitable gas, electricity or combined energy contracts. This includes looking at energy tariffs, unit rates, standing charges and contract terms.
Once we have your options, we’ll explain them clearly so you can choose the energy contract that best fits your business. If you decide to go ahead, we’ll manage the switch for you.
What information do I need to compare business energy prices?
To compare business energy prices, it helps to have your business address, current supplier, account number, annual energy usage and contract end date.
A recent energy bill is useful because it usually includes most of this information. For electricity, your MPAN number identifies your electricity supply. For gas, your MPRN number identifies your gas supply.
If you don’t have everything to hand, our team can help you work out what information is needed.
Can you compare both gas and electricity for my business?
Business Utility Hub can compare gas, electricity or combined business energy contracts.
We’ll review your current supply, usage and contract position, then compare suitable options from available suppliers. If your gas and electricity contracts have different end dates, we can help you understand the best way to manage each renewal.
How long does it take to get a quote?
Getting a business energy quote can take just a few minutes if the right information is available.
Having your business address, current supplier, account number, annual usage and contract end date can help speed things up. If you’re missing some details, we’ll guide you through what we need.
Do I need to speak to someone to get a quote?
BUH’s process is built around speaking to our team.
A quick call helps us understand your business, current energy supplier, usage and contract position. It also gives you the chance to ask questions before making a decision.
Is there any cost for comparing business energy deals?
There is no upfront cost for using Business Utility Hub’s service.
Our commission comes from the supplier. We’ll provide clear, transparent advice, and our commission structure can be disclosed on request.
Will comparing energy affect my current contract?
Comparing business energy options does not automatically affect your current contract.
It simply allows us to review your position, check available supplier options and explain whether there may be a better energy contract for your business. Your contract will only change if you choose to go ahead with a new agreement.
Why should your business be using an energy specialist instead of searching for suppliers?
Business energy prices change regularly, and not every supplier or energy tariff will suit every business.
Using an energy specialist saves time and helps you compare options more clearly. Business Utility Hub checks business energy prices every day, compares Ofgem-regulated suppliers, provides advice on renewal timing and explains contract terms in plain English.
We focus purely on business gas and electricity, so our expertise is concentrated on energy. We’ll help you understand your options, manage the switch and provide ongoing support through a dedicated account manager.
