How gas contracts differ
Gas contracts hinge on annual quantity, take or pay terms and the split between commodity and non-commodity costs. Getting the annual quantity right matters: too low and you pay penalties, too high and you pay for gas you do not use.

Fixed or flexible?
For most gas users a well timed fixed contract is right. Larger and multi site users can benefit from buying in tranches. Read our fixed or flexible guide.
Common questions
What is annual quantity on a gas contract?
The estimated amount of gas you will use in a year. It drives the price and any take or pay terms, so it needs to be right before you sign.
When is the best time to buy business gas?
Ahead of your renewal, when you can choose the moment rather than the deadline. We monitor the market and advise when to go.
Do you check gas bills?
Yes. Bill validation covers gas as well as electricity, including Climate Change Levy relief.
