Energy tariffs
There are two types of energy tariffs available:
- Fixed tariffs where the unit price for gas or electricity remains constant for the duration of the plan, usually for one year although fixed tariffs of two or three years also exist.
- Variable tariffs where the unit price for gas or electricity may vary at the discretion of the supplier.
