Pricing options
We offer simple and flexible pricing options to cater to different customers:
- Bespoke quotation: for customers using in excess of 13,000m3 per annum or requiring a quote for a substantial number of sites, our Tenders Team will provide a bespoke quotation. This will be presented as either a wholesale plus fixed fee quotation or a retail minus %
- Dual tariff pricing: for SME customers, we offer dual tariff pricing with contract length options of one, three, or five years. There are additional discounts available for three or five-year contracts.
Providing an accurate quotation
To ensure we provide an accurate and tailored quotation for your clients, please provide the following information when making your request:
- A site list: SPIDs or meter serial numbers are ideal if available, otherwise provide the full supply address(es), including postcode(s)
- Customer name and contracting entity registration
- Contract length required (if specified)
- Payment terms required (if specified)
- Invoicing requirement: specify whether consolidated or site level billing is needed and the preferred frequency (if specified)
- Any other information: inform us of any value-added services (such as loggers or water audits) that may be of interest to your clients
- A valid and up to date Letter of Authority (LOA).
Commission structure
We want to be transparent about our commission process. By default, our quotations do not include any commission. If you wish to receive commission, please request it at the time of the quotation. You can specify a percentage of the annual spend or annual saving, or a fixed amount (e.g. £X per site) for commission. Our offer will clearly state whether commission is included.
Please note that we do not pay commission in advance. Commission will only be paid after the customer has settled their invoices.
