The situation
A manufacturer with high consumption asked us to review its whole electricity position, not just the renewal. The contract was coming up, but nobody had looked at the metering agreements or the schemes the business might qualify for.
What we did
- Placed the supply through a private market arrangement, so the business buys electricity generated by a UK renewable generator at a competitive fixed rate for the term.
- Tendered the meter operator, data collector and data aggregator contracts, which had been left on expensive default terms.
- Identified that the business qualified for a government scheme, set up the entity it needed and submitted the claim.
The result
Lower cost renewable power with a fixed price for the term, metering contracts brought under control, and a scheme claim the business did not know it was eligible for.
What this shows
The renewal is only one line on the bill. Metering charges and scheme eligibility are often worth more than the difference between two supplier quotes.
When did you last review the whole bill?
Send us a recent bill and we will look at the supply, the metering and the schemes together. Free and no obligation.
