Pozitive Energy
out-of-contract rates.
Pozitive publishes one standard schedule for out-of-contract and deemed supplies, effective 1 March 2026. Start with these prices, then check the charges specific to your site.
| Meter arrangement | Unit rate | Supplier standing charge |
|---|---|---|
| Single electricity | 45.00p/kWh | 150.00p/day |
| Day & night electricity | 45.00p/kWh | 150.00p/day |
| Day & evening/weekend electricity | 45.00p/kWh | 150.00p/day |
| Day, night & evening/weekend electricity | 45.00p/kWh | 150.00p/day |
| Gas | 15.00p/kWh | 150.00p/day |
The current table shows the same electricity unit price for each listed register arrangement. It does not publish separate regional prices or gas usage bands. Your account’s written prices and charge breakdown still need checking.
£1.50 a day is not
the full daily charge.
For electricity, Pozitive adds TNUoS (transmission) fixed charges and distribution fixed charges separately. Both are priced in pence per day (p/day) and sit on top of the 150p/day supplier standing charge.
The applicable Targeted Charging Review (TCR) band matters. Check the band and network tariff assigned to your site, using your bill or a written breakdown from Pozitive.
Divide the combined p/day amount by 100 for pounds per day. Energy usage, tax and any other applicable charges still need to be included.
Pozitive’s public schedule does not give the extra amounts by band. We’ll check your actual charges alongside contract offers, so the £1.50 headline does not give a misleading impression of the cost.

These are potential charges, not a statement that every one applies to every account. Their amounts can change. Send a recent bill or written price breakdown so we can identify the relevant items.
For a half-hourly or CT supply, confirm capacity, network and metering costs before treating a comparison as complete. Help me check my charges ↗
Out of contract or just moved in?
A deemed supply can arise when you become responsible for premises already supplied by Pozitive without agreeing a contract. An expired fixed contract is a different starting point, even though the published schedule combines both price categories.
We can establish the account position and compare contracts for a suitable start date. I’ve just moved in ↗
Why not use the older prices on Pozitive’s website?
The supplier pages also retain schedules effective in January 2024 and April 2023. This guide uses the newest dated schedule displayed when checked, 1 March 2026. We have not blended the older prices into the current figures.
What do the headline
charges add up to?
Estimate energy and the supplier standing charge, with tax shown separately. This is a starting point for checking your bill, not the full cost of supply.
Could a lower tax rate apply?
Relief can apply to domestic use, charitable non-business use and eligible small quantities. Charity status alone is not enough. Qualifying electricity in Great Britain has temporary 0% VAT from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2027; qualifying gas has 5% VAT. Qualifying supplies are exempt from CCL.
Small-quantity eligibility is assessed over the billing period, not just from an annual estimate. Only select relief where the whole supply qualifies. Mixed use, Northern Ireland and Climate Change Agreement discounts need a separate check. HMRC VAT guidance ↗
Use expected consumption from your bill. All electricity registers use the same published unit price in this schedule.
Tax checked 19 October 2026. Standard business CCL: 0.801p/kWh; VAT applies after CCL. Annualised at the checked tariff and tax rates, using 365 standing charges. Average month = annualised amount ÷ 12. This is not a forecast of the next 12 months; prices and tax may change.

Ready for your
next contract?
Start with the account’s status and end date. We’ll check the route to a new contract before you agree to anything.
Check my contract position ↗On a deemed supply
Pozitive’s published energy terms say no termination notice or termination fee is required to switch from a deemed contract. You remain responsible for charges while the supply is with Pozitive.
Your fixed contract has ended
Check your contract and price notice. Eligible microbusinesses have Ofgem protections against termination-notice requirements at fixed-term expiry and on out-of-contract arrangements. Evergreen contracts can differ; these protections do not automatically extend to every SME.
Your renewal is approaching
We can compare offers for a future start date, including an available Pozitive renewal. A fixed contract that is still running may carry early termination charges. Let us check it before arranging a switch.
Moving out and switching supplier are separate processes. Timing depends on your supply and any valid objection. Pozitive energy terms, sections 3 and 9 ↗ · Ofgem electricity licence, condition 7A ↗
