Better dental practice electricity prices
We hold energy companies to account. Unfortunately, energy companies don’t often give small businesses their best electricity prices. Certainly not Dental Practices, who generally use less than 40,000 kWh of electricity in a 12 month period.
As far as your energy supplier is concerned, this isn’t going to make them very much profit. They raise the price per kWh to increase their profits from your electricity supply. And charge more than the going rate.
Experts in small business energy prices, we know what a competitive rate looks like. For the electricity region your dental practice is located. For your electricity consumption over the year. And for the current position of the electricity market.
We extract these prices from more than 20 (twenty) energy companies and pass the best options onto your dental practice.
What price should a dental practice pay for electricity?
These are our average prices for a Dental Practice in March 2020, based on practices we work with. The best electricity prices for your dental practice could therefore be higher or lower than these. They are simply a guide. Call us for more accurate options, specific to your practice.
| Length of Contract | Price per kWh | Daily Standing Charge |
| 1 year | 11.94p | 26.48p |
| 2 years | 12.31p | 28.10p |
| 3 years | 12.72p | 28.35p |
As we touched on above, dental practice electricity prices can vary considerably, according to several factors. These include:
- Wholesale prices when you agreed your electricity contract
- Your location in the UK
- The number of years you choose to fix your electricity prices
- The type of electricity meter at your dental practice
Ask us to look at options for your dental practice. Working with over 20 energy companies, we check prices from those who we know to be competitive for small business energy users. And wherever possible, we hold energy companies to account to ensure your rates are as low as we can get.
In many cases this helps your Dental Practice to access electricity prices more consistent with a larger, more energy-hungry business.
Still saving on electricity bills after 8 years
We mentioned at the top of this page that we hold energy companies to account.
In 2012 a Dental Practice in London asked us to check their electricity bill. EON were charging a considerable sum of more than 14p per kWh for their electricity prices. As well as the standing charge.
We kept this with the same electricity supplier, and reduced the unit rate to 9.5p (this was back in 2012 when prices were considerably lower!).
They have kindly asked us to continue managing their electricity contract. Over subsequent years, electricity prices have clearly increased. However, even the fourth contract we arranged for the customer, which was for 3 years (2019-22) was still lower than EON’s charges in 2012.
Green electricity for a Dental Practice
We usually include a green option when we provide a list of our electricity prices to small businesses.
In fact, 100% green electricity tariff for businesses are often in our top three lowest options. More energy suppliers are turning to green energy as standard.
We work with numerous green energy companies. As well as larger electricity companies who also provide green options but don’t advertise these very much in the business sector.
If you would like to investigate a green tariff for your Dental Practice electricity, drop us a line.
Customer service through your electricity contract
Contacting your energy company. This must be one of the more frustrating parts of running a business. Calling your energy supplier and navigating through the extensive menu. Waiting for someone to take your call. Then having to call back because your issue wasn’t resolved, and you are put through to a different call centre altogether!
But it needn’t be so.
One call (or email) to us at Perfect Clarity, is all it takes. Your consultant will resolve the issue directly with the energy company and report back to you. Common queries are about a bill, estimated readings, perhaps even a faulty meter.
We are simply a phone call away, throughout your energy contract.
