Money Supermarket offers you energy comparison so you'll be getting the lowest price for your gas and electricity bills

Green Energy
Environmentally Friendly Energy

More and more energy suppliers are now offering green energy, a tariff based on renewable energy that is produced from natural sources, such as wind and solar power, which do minimal harm to the environment. Unlike fossil fuels these sources are infinite.

Prepayment
Pay for your energy use in advance

Pre-payment meters allow customers to 'pay as you go' and budget over a period of time. You cannot move from a prepayment meter without contacting your current gas and electricity supplier but you can use our comparison tool to find a cheaper energy supplier.

Fixed Price Products
A set price for a set period

If you’re looking for stability in a fluctuating energy market a fixed price plan may be for you. These plans allow you to fix your gas and electricity prices for a set period of time. If you are currently on a fixed or capped tariff please check with your current supplier before moving as exit fees may apply.

Economy 7

Economy 7 is a tariff which charges you a lower electricity rate at night allowing you to heat water during this time and save money. If you are an existing Economy 7 customer you cannot change to a non-Economy 7 tariff without contacting your electricity supplier first. You can, however choose to keep your meter and use our comparison tool to change supplier.

Winter fuel payments - money from the government to keep you warm

What is a Winter Fuel Payment?
If you're aged 60 or over, you could be entitled to a Winter Fuel Payment to help with your heating bills in winter.

Most people get these paid automatically, but to find out if you need to make a claim, you can contact the helpline or call them on 0845 9 15 15 15 (Monday to Friday 8.30am to 4.30pm, calls are charged at the local rate).
The deadline for claims for Winter Fuel Payments for winter 2004/05 was 30 March 2005. If you have any queries about your claim for winter 2004/05 contact the Winter Fuel Payments Helpline. You should have your National Insurance number ready when you call.

The Government will again make Winter Fuel Payments to most people aged 60 or over for winter 2005/06. Further information will be available on this site in July 2005
