We watch the market for you
We compare 28+ UK suppliers and track wholesale gas and power every trading day — so we can tell you not just the price, but the right time to lock it in.
You sign at the right time
Secure the right contract at the right moment. Then keep a real adviser on hand for renewals, disputes and questions, long after you've signed.
Most advisers find a price.
We find the moment.
We track wholesale gas and power every trading day. The Smart Energy Market Desk shows you where the market sits for your renewal — the price, how it's moving, and what suppliers are charging across future delivery periods.
When does your contract end?
Lower over the month, up over the week.
Aug-26 gas fell 5.9% over the past 30 days, and rose 4.0% this week.
What suppliers are charging across future delivery periods. Your renewal window changes which part of the curve matters.
Later years are priced below the near term — which can make longer contracts look attractive, depending on your renewal date.
Today's read: Gas and power are both firmer week-on-week as geopolitical risk returns to the front of the curve. Whether it's worth fixing now or holding depends on your renewal date and your appetite for risk — that's a two-minute call.
Not renewing yet? Stay ahead of it.
Get the Market Desk read delivered to your inbox — the same intelligence we use to time our clients' contracts, so you can see when the advice changes before your window opens. Daily, weekly or monthly, your choice.
The figures shown are wholesale market prices — a guide to what's happening now and how the market has recently moved, not a forecast of where it's going. Your quoted business rate sits above these. Whether you fix now or wait is entirely your decision.

Business energy, handled — from a single shop to a complex portfolio.
From one site to one hundred.
Whatever your size or sector, you get the same hands-on advice — no business too small, and none too complex.
Small & single-site
Shops, cafés, offices, restaurants, surgeries and care homes — a better deal without the jargon, and someone to call when something comes up.
Multi-site & growing
Portfolios, franchises and chains — renewals handled consistently across every site, through one point of contact.
Larger & complex
Hospitality, manufacturing, warehousing and schools — half-hourly meters, kVA reviews and full tendering where a basic comparison isn't enough.
“Tom is exceptional, went above and beyond in order to navigate us through a tricky situation. Can't recommend enough. ”
You get one point of contact who knows your business, your sites and your renewal dates — not a queue, and not a different person each time. A real adviser reviews your details and gets back to you, usually the same working day.
The contract isn't the end. It's the beginning.
Switching is the easy part. The real value is everything we do afterwards — and when something goes wrong, we fight your corner. Here's a real one.
A multi-site hospitality client was issued an £85,000 bill by EDF. We challenged it on their behalf — requesting a full statement of account and updated meter reads, and applying Ofgem's back-billing principles — and managed the dispute through to a corrected liability of £2,158.85 .
- We manage the supplier transfer end to end — you just sign.
- We resolve billing and supply disputes, so you're never on hold.
- We track your renewal — never an out-of-contract rate.
- A dedicated account manager who knows your account.

Why Smart Energy
Energy advice. Built around your business.
Business energy is about more than securing a rate. The right advice, the right timing and the right support can make a significant difference over the life of a contract.
One dedicated account manager
A single point of contact who knows your business, your sites and your renewal dates. No call queues, no starting over each time.
Market expertise, not guesswork
We track the wholesale market every day and use that data to advise on the right time to secure your contract — guidance tailored to your renewal, not a generic signal.
A genuinely low-pressure approach
Advice first. We won't hound you with calls or marketing, and we'll happily tell you to hold off if that's the smarter move.
Transparent by default
Our commission is disclosed in writing on every contract. Most brokers bury theirs in your unit rate.
Why use a broker?
Why not just go direct?
You can — here's the difference a dedicated adviser makes.
Managing it yourself
-
Contacting suppliers and comparing rates, one at a time.
-
You're comparing one supplier's prices at a time.
-
Timing your renewal is left to your own judgement.
-
Billing queries go directly to the supplier.
-
Keeping track of your renewal date is up to you.
-
The calls, emails and admin sit with you.
Having an adviser on your side
-
One conversation covers 28+ suppliers — we do the legwork and present the options clearly.
-
We compare the wider market, which often uncovers more competitive pricing than one supplier alone.
-
Daily market intelligence and timing advice, tailored to your renewal.
-
We handle billing queries and supplier admin for you.
-
We track your renewal and flag it in good time.
-
Our commission is paid by the supplier and disclosed in writing before you sign.
But can't I get it cheaper by going direct?
Sometimes a direct offer is competitive — but on your own, there's no way to know. Loyalty isn't always rewarded with a better price, and a renewal or rollover offer isn't always the most competitive one available. Comparing the wider market is the only reliable way to understand whether the price you're being offered is genuinely competitive
Many of our clients came to us after trying to manage renewals themselves. Others simply prefer having an adviser they can call when something goes wrong.

Don't take our word for it.
Most of our business comes from renewals, referrals and long-term relationships — many clients have been with us for years.
I've worked with a lot of energy brokers and unfailingly they just want a quick transaction after a 5-minute call. Smart Energy sent us weekly pricing and shared market insights for months before we signed. How could we use anyone else.
Smart Energy has advised us for over 5 years now, always responding quickly and sorting deals within hours, not days or weeks.

Years of stalled paperwork, finally done
A client had spent years trying, on their own, to reduce their kVA capacity and move from a CT half-hourly meter to a whole-current meter. We took it on — managing the applications, the technical process and the renewal pricing — and got it done.
Tom always answers the phone. Problems get sorted. Nothing is ever too much trouble.
