Frequently asked questions
What is an LOA ?

An LOA ( letter of authority ) allows us to find information from your current supplier such as usage and contract end date. If we arrange the switch we can use this to inform the supplier.

Do you arrange the switch of supplier ?

Yes we deal with everything. Once you are happy with your new rates you can sit back and relax and we will take care of the rest.

What support do you offer ?

We don't just arrange the new supply and disappear like some brokers.

If you ever have any queries or questions then we deal with the supplier on your behalf ( no more sitting on hold ) 

Do you offer any other services ?

Yes- we also work with waste and water suppliers and can help save you money there.

Will switching interrupt my supply?

No. Switching supplier is purely a billing and contractual change - the electricity, gas or water reaching your premises is exactly the same. There's no interruption and no disruption to your business.

Do I have to wait until my current contract ends?

Not necessarily. Many business contracts can be arranged ahead of time so your new rate is locked in and ready to start the day your current deal expires. It's worth getting in touch well before your renewal date so you don't roll onto expensive out-of-contract rates.

Why use a broker instead of going direct?

A broker compares the whole market for you in one go, rather than you contacting suppliers one at a time. We know which suppliers suit different business types, we handle the negotiation and paperwork, and we manage the switch - saving you time as well as helping you avoid overpaying.

Do you only work with businesses in Runcorn?

We work with businesses across Runcorn, neighbouring Widnes and the wider Cheshire and North West area. Wherever you're based, we can compare your utility costs and manage your switch.

Business energy in Runcorn: what local businesses need to know

Runcorn is an industrial town with an unusually wide spread of energy users. There is heavy process industry around Weston Point and the Manchester Ship Canal, light industrial and trade units at Astmoor and Whitehouse, offices and labs at The Heath, distribution operations clustered near the M56, and retail and hospitality around Halton Lea and the old town. Those are five very different load shapes, and suppliers price each one differently. It is why annual consumption alone is a poor guide to what a Runcorn business should be paying.

What sits on your Runcorn bill

Gas in Runcorn is transported through Cadent's North West network, and electricity distribution charges are set by the region your meter falls in rather than by your supplier. Those network, transmission and policy costs make up a large share of the final bill, so a comparison that only looks at the unit rate is not really a comparison. We work from the full delivered cost for your specific Runcorn supply point.

Industrial and half-hourly sites: check your capacity

If your site at Astmoor, Whitehouse or Weston Point is half-hourly metered, the unit rate is only part of the picture. Available capacity, or agreed kVA, is billed whether you draw on it or not, and plenty of older industrial units are still paying for headroom that a previous occupier needed. Reactive power charges are a second common leak on sites running older motors, pumps and compressors. Both are worth reviewing alongside the contract, because a keen rate on the wrong capacity still leaves money on the table.

Why Runcorn businesses end up overpaying

Usually timing. When a fixed contract ends and nothing new has been agreed, supply falls onto out-of-contract or deemed rates, typically the most expensive rates a supplier offers. Automatic rollovers catch others out, as does accepting an existing supplier's renewal quote without testing it against the market. Businesses that have recently taken a unit in the town are often on deemed rates without knowing it.

Sites across Halton and beyond

Plenty of companies here operate on both sides of the Mersey, with premises in Runcorn and Widnes, or further out towards Warrington. When those contracts sit on different end dates the portfolio becomes harder to manage and you lose access to the better pricing available for aligned supplies. Lining the dates up is often worth more than shaving a penny off the rate.

How to get started

Send us a recent bill, or just your business name and postcode, and we can usually pull your usage and contract end date ourselves. We compare 15+ suppliers, come back with the options laid out plainly, and handle the switch with both your old and new supplier. Prefer to talk it through first? Call 0151 541 6767.
