The government have announced measures that will help customers this winter with their energy bills. You can find the latest information on our Government Energy Price Guarantee page.
Most customers don't need to do anything to benefit from the Government Energy Price Guarantee. There are a small number of customers who we're contacting individually to let them know their options and offer them the opportunity to switch to our cheaper Standard (Variable) tariff at no extra cost.
The Energy Bills Support Scheme (EBSS) is only one part of the help for households funding the government is offering. The EBSS offers every household across Great Britain a £400 non-repayable discount which will be paid in 6 instalments from October.
We've created a guide on what you need to know about the scheme.
It's more than likely that you're better off staying with your current energy supplier right now. This is due to the rising energy prices. Want us to alert you when energy prices go down? Sign up for our price alert emails, and we'll let you know when this happens.

Rising wholesale gas costs around the world have seen energy prices skyrocket.
That’s why we’re busy building Britain’s own wind, nuclear and solar energy supply – to reduce our reliance on energy imports and help prevent future gas price rises.
With rising energy prices, we're all looking for ways to save on energy, as well as keep warm next winter.

EDF's EV tariffs are backed with 100% zero carbon renewable electricity. Electricity for EDF's GoElectric tariff comes from renewable sources like wind, solar, biomass, tidal and hydroelectric. At the end of each fuel mix reporting year, EDF will make sure they've purchased enough renewable electricity from EDF owned renewable generation to match the total volume of electricity supplied to all their customers on the GoElectric tariff. A fuel mix reporting year begins on 1 April and ends on 31 March the following year. UK Fuel Mix disclosure information published by the Government (BEIS), recognises electricity from wind, solar and nuclear fuel produces zero carbon dioxide emissions at the point of generation. See EDF's tariff table for more information.
UK Fuel Mix disclosure information, published by Government Department BEIS, recognises electricity from wind, solar and nuclear fuel produces zero carbon dioxide emissions at the point of generation.
The zero-carbon electricity purchased is supplied to the National Grid. Customers receive electricity via the National Grid, not directly from zero-carbon generators.
