YGP’s rates.
The detail that matters.
One rate sheet covers non-half-hourly electricity, half-hourly electricity and gas. There is no regional price selector in this published schedule.
Default / out-of-contract supply normally follows an expired fixed term. Deemed supply can apply when you take over premises without agreeing a contract. Confirm your position from your bill; the published prices currently match.
| Supply | Unit rate p/kWh |
Standing p/day |
Capacity p/kVA/day |
|---|---|---|---|
| Non-half-hourly electricity | 45.00 | 275.00 | Not listed |
| Half-hourly electricity | 47.00 | 1765.00 | 13.00 |
| Business gas | 15.00 | 260.00 | Not listed |
Charges are per supply point. This sheet publishes one unit rate per supply category; it does not set out regional, multi-register or separate payment-method prices. See the original rate sheet ↗
HH: add your capacity.
At 100 kVA , the published capacity rate adds £13/day or £4,745/year before tax. This is on top of the £17.65/day standing charge.
Review your half-hourly and kVA charges ↗Check the full bill.
The terms allow network and third-party charges. HH metering, data, reactive power and excess capacity may also add cost. No complete site-specific total is published here.
Let’s check your actual bill ↗Other charges and payment terms to check
YGP’s deemed terms allow distribution and transportation costs and third-party pass-through charges (5.6–5.7). Its TNUoS page says April 2026 increases are passed through standing charges. The May sheet does not reconcile each component, so do not automatically add a second TNUoS charge without checking your bill.
For an invoice not paid by Direct Debit, deemed condition 5.7.8 specifies the greater of 6% of the invoice or £75 per relevant supply point . The principal summary also states a non-DD charge. This is an invoice-related fee, not a separate p/kWh tariff.
Cancelled or failed Direct Debits, late payments and other events can generate further fees. They are excluded from this calculator. Check your applicable agreement: the standard-contract summary and deemed terms are separate documents.

Put your usage
against the rates.
Estimate the published energy, standing and HH capacity charges. Add other confirmed supplier energy charges if you have them.
25,000 kWh is a starting illustration, not your consumption. Check your tariff category; a smart meter alone does not establish an HH rate.
45.00p/kWh · £2.75/day
Check the source table ↗VAT, CCL and qualifying-use relief
Standard business mode adds CCL at 0.801p/kWh, then 20% VAT on the CCL-inclusive subtotal. Confirmed qualifying use has no CCL: gas VAT is 5%; qualifying electricity in Great Britain is temporarily 0% from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2027.
Charity status alone does not qualify every supply. Small-quantity and mixed-use rules need to be checked against the actual supply; the calculator does not infer eligibility from annual usage. Climate Change Agreement reductions need a separate check.
We annualise current tax treatment, not future changes. CCL is scheduled to become 0.827p/kWh from 1 April 2027. HMRC VAT guidance ↗ · HMRC CCL rates ↗

Check my contract position ↗Microbusiness notice rules
Ofgem removed termination-notice requirements for microbusiness contracts from 1 October 2022, except evergreen contracts. This does not create a right to leave a fixed term early. Not every SME has identical protections.
Read older wording with care
YGP’s linked April 2024 standard terms still contain microbusiness notice wording. We have not treated that as overriding Ofgem’s rules. Check your classification, current agreement and contract end date before acting.
New occupier or expired contract?
Record the responsibility date and opening readings when moving in. If your fixed contract is ending, compare a renewal with other offers in time for your end date. Any lawful objection or unpaid balance still needs resolving before a transfer can complete.
