Understanding your home energy bill
Your home energy bill is made up of several components. Understanding each one helps you make a more informed review when looking at different tariffs.
- Unit rate – the price you pay per kilowatt hour (kWh) of gas or electricity you use. This is usually the biggest factor in your total bill.
- Standing charge – a fixed daily charge that covers the cost of supplying energy to your home, regardless of how much you use.
- Contract type – fixed-rate tariffs lock in your unit rate for a set period, while variable tariffs can change with market conditions.
- Payment method – paying by direct debit is usually the cheapest option. Prepayment meters may have different rates.
What affects your home energy costs
Several factors influence how much you pay for gas and electricity at home:
- The size and age of your property, including insulation levels
- The number of people living in your home
- Your heating system type (gas boiler, electric heating, heat pump)
- How many appliances you use and how energy-efficient they are
- Whether you are on a fixed-rate or variable tariff
- The time of year, as heating demand is typically higher in winter
Checklist before you compare
- Review tariffs when your current contract is due to end
- Have a recent bill handy so you know your current usage
- Look at the total annual cost, not just the unit rate
- Check for exit fees on your current tariff before switching
- Consider whether a fixed or variable tariff suits you better
- Read the terms carefully, including contract length and any price guarantees
Home energy questions
Switching typically completes within 21 days. Your new supplier handles the transfer from your existing provider, and there is no interruption to your gas or electricity supply during the process.
No. The same gas and electricity comes through the same pipes and wires. Only your billing arrangement changes. You do not need to change any meters or wiring.
You will need your postcode and ideally a recent energy bill so you know your current usage, tariff, and supplier. The more accurate your usage data, the more useful the results will be.
A good time to compare is when your current fixed-rate tariff is coming to an end. If you are on a variable or default tariff, you can review at any time.
Some fixed-rate tariffs include exit fees if you leave before the contract end date. Check your current contract terms before switching. If you are on a variable tariff or your fixed contract has ended, there are usually no exit fees.
