Annual consumption
The amount of electricity or gas used each year forms the basis of the supplier's price.
Commercial Tariff Switching
Compare and switch business energy tariffs.
We review your current electricity and gas position, compare suitable commercial offers and explain the terms before you commit.

How your price is calculated
Every business receives a different rate.
Business energy tariffs are priced against the individual supply. Two organisations using the same annual amount can receive different offers because the location, meter type, consumption pattern, contract dates and credit position are different.
We check the information suppliers will use before requesting prices, reducing the risk of an offer being withdrawn or changed because the original details were incomplete.
Meter and supply type
The MPAN or MPRN, electricity profile, metering arrangement and supply characteristics determine which contracts are available.
Usage pattern
When energy is used can affect the price, particularly for multi-rate and half-hourly electricity supplies.
Business location
Network and distribution costs vary across the UK and are reflected in supplier pricing.
Contract dates
The required start date and agreement length affect the wholesale and non-energy costs included in the quote.
Credit and payment terms
Suppliers may assess company history, payment record and credit position before confirming an offer.
Looking beyond the unit rate
The lowest rate is not always the lowest annual cost.
Standing charges can make a significant difference to a lower-usage site. For a larger consumer, even a small movement in the unit rate can materially affect the annual bill.
We apply the same consumption information to each suitable offer so that day, night and weekend rates, standing charges and the complete contract can be compared on the same basis.
Rates and charges
Electricity or gas unit rates, daily standing charges and time-based rates where applicable.
Estimated annual cost
A like-for-like calculation based on the consumption information supplied.
Contract dates and term
The proposed start, end date and length of the agreement.
Commercial conditions
Payment method, credit requirements, supplier conditions and renewable electricity options where requested.
Broker commission
NUA Energy's commission and how it is calculated are explained before the agreement is entered into.
Estimated annual costs depend on the consumption information supplied. The amount ultimately paid will reflect actual usage and any taxes or charges that are not fixed under the contract.
When to review your tariff
Do not wait until the current contract has ended.
A new business energy contract can often be arranged before the existing agreement expires. The available quotation window depends on the supplier, fuel, meter type and proposed contract length.
If a contract expires without another agreement in place, the premises may move onto out-of-contract or deemed rates until the new contract begins.
Approaching renewal
We confirm the current end date and obtain prices for a new agreement beginning immediately afterwards.
Already out of contract
We identify the earliest available start date and compare suitable fixed agreements.
Still mid-contract
The next agreement may be arranged in advance, with the transfer normally taking place after the existing contract ends.
How it works
From accurate information to an agreed route.
The detail changes by service; the discipline and transparency do not.
What a good process delivers
Clearer decisions without generic promises.
The relevant costs, assumptions and responsibilities stay visible, and your team retains control of the final choice.
A structured market comparison
The commercial assumptions are tested before the decision.
Clearer decision-making
The relevant costs and responsibilities are made visible.
Less administration for your team
The route is shaped around the organisation rather than a standard package.
Support after signature
The next review point remains clear after delivery.
Questions about commercial tariff switching
What businesses usually ask us.
The supplier, lender, funder or technical terms that apply to a live requirement are always checked before a final decision.
What information do you need to compare tariffs?+
We normally need a recent electricity or gas bill, the current contract end date and confirmation of the business occupying the premises. The bill should show the MPAN for electricity or MPRN for gas, supplier, meter details and annual consumption.
Will I need to sign a Letter of Authority?+
Usually, yes. It allows NUA Energy to obtain relevant supply information and request prices on your behalf. It does not by itself allow us to enter your business into an energy supply contract.
Will the energy supply be interrupted?+
No. A supplier switch is an administrative change and energy continues through the same network, cables, pipes and meter. Separate meter or engineering work is different.
Can I switch before my current contract ends?+
A future contract can often be agreed in advance, but the new supply usually begins when the existing agreement ends. Leaving early may result in termination charges or a refused transfer.
How long does switching take?+
The contract can often be agreed quickly once accurate information and prices are available. The actual start date depends on the existing agreement, chosen supplier and whether the transfer is accepted without objection.
What happens if my current supplier objects?+
An objection may relate to an outstanding balance, an existing contract, incorrect site information or an unresolved change of tenancy. We help establish the reason, but the transfer can complete only after the objection is removed.
Do you compare every business energy supplier?+
Not every supplier quotes every organisation. Availability depends on meter type, consumption, location, credit position and start date. We compare suitable offers available through our supplier routes.
Can you switch several business sites?+
Yes. We can organise supplies across multiple locations. Larger portfolios, half-hourly meters or more complex structures may be handled through commercial energy procurement.
How is NUA Energy paid?+
NUA Energy may receive commission from the chosen supplier within the agreed energy price. Before contract, we explain how it is calculated and disclose the amount or estimated amount attributable to the agreement.
