Everything you need to know about gas.
Who are your possible electricity and gas suppliers?
Where do you fit in the supply chain?
"All customers have been able to change their gas
or electricity supplier since May 1999. Since then, over 19 million
customers have changed supplier, seeing savings of up to £100 on their energy
bills. Average energy prices have fallen by 13 per cent in real terms since
competition began." Ofgem
"The current rate of switching (38 per cent in electricity and 37 per cent in
gas) is higher than in any other comparable industry. So far domestic customer's
have saved £500 million pounds in lower electricity prices"
