British Gas Business Electricity Rates And Prices


12th December, 2009

Probably more businesses in the UK are supplied electricity by British Gas than any other supplier simply because they were the original main supplier to all homes and businesses. Even today though their rates and prices are competitive so here’s a rundown of what is on offer.

An overview of British Gas Business Supplies

Electricity and gas prices supplied by British Gas are still some of the cheapest in the country and they win many awards for their business energy contracts. If you are with another provider you can actually save a lot of money for your business by switching (which is very easy and is all done online now via their website). They currently serve over 950,000 businesses in the UK.

They have a choice of contracts you can have and these come without switching out penalties so if you find they are not for you there are no termination costs associated with these.

You also get expert guidance from their energy team and their call centres are based in the UK. For the average business they suggest you can save £850 per year by switching to them and they do all of this work for you. A quote can be had in less than a minute from their website.
