From 1st July 2025, UK domestic energy prices will fall by 7.0%, taking the average energy bill to £1,719 per year. This means that average energy prices will fall by £130.27 from £1,849.28 to £1,719.00. However, despite this reduction, there are still significant savings to be had by running an energy comparison and switching to a fixed-rate energy tariff. Looking at our latest switching data, we saved an average customer £224 a year and reached a milestone figure of saving customers almost £1,000,000 a year on their energy costs.
Comparing energy prices is the key to ensuring you're not paying more than you should, and at The Energy Shop, we're committed to helping you find the best gas and electric deals tailored to your needs. We provide expert guidance on switching suppliers, empowering you to make significant savings on your energy bills.

We want you to be confident when switching energy suppliers with The Energy Shop. That is why we have four energy switching guarantees in place:
When searching for the best energy deals, it's essential to consider a supplier's fuel mix. This mix details the different sources they use to generate electricity, including fossil fuels like coal and gas, nuclear energy, and renewable options such as wind, solar, and hydroelectric power. The amount of renewable energy within a supplier's fuel mix serves as a crucial indicator of their environmental footprint.
Several energy suppliers have made the commitment to 100% renewable energy, meaning all their electricity is generated from renewable sources. Companies such as Ecotricity are leading the way in this regard, offering tariffs that are not only competitively priced but also kind to the planet.
"Consumers across the UK will see a welcome fall in energy prices from 1st July 2025 of around 7%. However, savvy customers who shop around can save 18.1% by switching to a cheaper fixed-rate energy tariff. Running a comparison and switching takes minutes, yet can save you hundreds of pounds, if not thousands"

Customer Service: Consider the reputation of the energy supplier. Quick, helpful responses to queries and issues are important. Our guide on the best and worst energy suppliers can help with this.

Exit Fees: Be aware of any charges for switching your energy supplier before the end of your contract.

Fuel Mix: Evaluate the energy supplier's fuel mix - the various sources they use to generate electricity. This can include fossil fuels like coal and natural gas, nuclear power, and renewable sources like wind, solar, and hydro.
Comparing gas and electricity prices and switching can save you money.
The latest 'State of the Energy Market' report from Ofgem shows that the number of unengaged customers is still high, and those who are unengaged are more likely to be on an expensive default tariff and paying over the odds.

The key to finding the best energy deal for you is to compare a range of energy suppliers and tariffs. Our service makes it easy to do just that, so you can make an informed decision about which of the many UK's energy suppliers to choose.
At The Energy Shop, when you use our energy calculator, we initially show you deals that can be switched to directly through our site. However, on the results page, you also have the option to switch to a whole of market comparison. This allows you to see all available energy deals across the entire market, including suppliers we don’t have a commercial relationship with.
This gives you complete control and transparency, so you can make the most informed decision. Our comparisons are always ranked by potential savings, ensuring you see the best options for your needs.
Once you have found the supplier and deal you wish to move to and confirmed the contract and payment method, your new supplier will contact you with a switching date.
Ofgem's new 'Faster Switching' programme, which came into effect in July 2022, means customers can switch supplier in as quick as 5 working days. This means customers can switch within their 14-day cool-off period OR they can wait and switch within 5 working-days after their 14-day cool-off period. If you switch within your 14-day cool-off period, and then want to cancel, you will obviously have to pay your new supplier for the energy you used during that time.
No, don't cancel your direct debits. This will be handled between the energy companies.
There's no hard and fast rule of when to switch energy suppliers. However if it's been a while since you last switched or you haven't switched energy supplier before, we would highly recommend comparing prices today. Other times it would be useful to think about switching is:
You don't need to be in credit to switch energy supplier, however there are different regulations based on the amount of debt you have and the type of tariff you currently use as to whether you can switch immediately or not. Rules are different again if you are in debt but use a prepayment meter.
If you're failing to pay your energy bills there are a number of steps you can take to avoid any disruption with your supply, and to help you repay what you owe.
Whether you can switch energy supplier whilst in rented accommodation will depend on who is named on the energy bills and who is responsible for paying them.
If the bills are in your name and you are making payments then you can change supplier as you wish. If the bills are in the name of the property owner, landlord, or an appointed agent, it is a decision they will need to make. If you are in this situation we would still recommend discussing with the relevant party.
