Creating a fairer, lasting deal for all energy customers

On the 20th November 2017, we announced seven actions we would be taking to help reform the UK energy market. These actions will increase engagement and choice, result in better deals and reduce average bills, deliver a fairer allocation of energy policy costs, and further protect vulnerable customers

From the 1st of April, we will no longer be offering the Standard Variable Tariff to new customers and existing customers will no longer roll on to this tariff when their current tariff ends. We believe that one of the main problems within the energy market is the ongoing nature of the Standard Variable Tariff, a tariff with no end date, which contributes to lower levels of engagement. We will instead offer customers a choice of fixed term contracts, encouraging customers regularly to select a new and competitive energy deal when their fixed contract ends. This will result in a broader range of better deals for customers with fewer people on the Standard Variable Tariff.

For those customers who do not make an active decision when their current tariffs end, we will be introducing a fixed Temporary tariff. The Temporary tariff will have a fixed price for one year (which will be at or below Standard Variable Tariff) and will have no exit fees ensuring customers are free to fully engage with the energy market. This would also include customers on both express and deemed contracts, who may move into a home already supplied by us.

Existing customers who are on Standard Variable Tariff will continue to remain on it. We will continue to actively engage with our existing customers, contacting them at least twice a year to encourage them to move away from Standard Variable Tariff.
