SSE tariffs

Find A New Business Energy Supplier

You can spread the cost by setting up a monthly direct debit or paying your bill online. Both options come in handy with a discount of £40 per fuel.

SSE offers three standard business tariffs but is flexible with its approach.

Flexible contracts – This allows you to buy your energy at times that suit you, ahead of, or during the contract period. For example, that means that over a two-year contract, purchases can be made monthly, quarterly, by season or using a combination of the three.

Fixed contracts – Your energy costs will be fixed for an agreed contract term with a fixed contract tariff. Prices reflect the market at the time you accept the contract and remain the same for the entire contract period, regardless of any market volatility (upwards or downwards).

Gas cash out – The SSE Gas Cash Out tariff gives business owners the option to buy gas and later sell it back, on an unlimited basis and at no extra cost. Also known as locking and unlocking this approach would allow you to optimise your overall supply price on a risk-managed basis.

Key benefits of switching to SSE:

 Maximise the value from business’s interval data by using the daily data to derive final achieved commodity price
 Live billing of energy and non-energy costs, enabling no reconciliation and increasing cash flow
 Refine forecasted position and purchasing decisions up to the end of every month
Ability to purchase gas down to 100-therm clip sizes based on business consumption forecast
Cash-out is derived from transparent indices rather than system marginal pricing
Zero fees for fixing and unfixing allow business owners to take full advantage of the market’s highs and lows, at no extra cost
