If you're approaching your contract end date or have already rolled onto Dyce Energy's transition rates, it's crucial to understand exactly what you're being charged. Dyce Energy refers to their out-of-contract pricing as "Transition Rates" — and as with most suppliers, these rates are significantly higher than fixed-term market contracts.

🔢 Quick Summary - Current Dyce Energy Out of Contract Rates

Utility Standing Charge Unit Rate
Gas From 510p/day (Band 1 & 2), 1000 p/day (Band 3) 13.7 p/kWh
Electricity (Non Half Hourly) 360 p/day 47.5 p/kWh (flat)
Electricity (Half Hourly Region-specific (min 2990p/day to 24730p/day Varies (Day/Night Rates + Capacity Charges)

Half Hourly customers should request a full site-specific quote due to significant regional and voltage-level variations.

⚡ Why Out of Contract Rates Cost You More


Out of contract rates exist to protect the supplier, not the customer. These Dyce transition rates are typically 40% to 70% higher than what you could achieve on a fixed-term deal. Remaining on these tariffs can quickly add thousands of pounds to your annual energy costs.



If your contract has ended, don’t delay — switching to a fixed contract now can deliver substantial savings.
