Electricity rates for a Newsagent business
Just call our friendly team on 020 3372 6517, and we will check our lowest electricity prices available today. From a very large range of suppliers. No call centres, we are a small family run business. You can speak to the same person every time you call.
How much should a Newsagent be paying for electricity per kWh?
It will vary from region to region across the UK. Roughly half the price per kWh of electricity is the wholesale price of electricity itself. The rest consists largely of distribution charges incurred by delivering electricity from generators, through the Grid network, to your premises.
Take a look at our recent average electricity rates for small businesses. These will vary considerably within regions depending on many factors, but it should give you an indication of prices our customers benefit from.
Some high-density areas, such as London, mean the delivery charges can be split across a large number of sites. More remote areas will incur a larger proportion of these delivery costs. There are other factors, but this explains the main reason for the variation in price between regions.
For example, a Newsagent in a densely populated area could be paying between 11.50p and 13.00p per kWh with our electricity prices. The standing charge will be around 25.00p per day.
This will be for a 12-month contract. You can expect the unit rate per kWh to increase a little, the longer you choose fix prices for.
For Newsagents in other areas, the price per kWh may increase 13.00p to 14.00p per kWh. Prices indicative at the time of writing in early 2020.
Newsagent electricity prices from across the energy market
Having spent over a decade helping businesses save money on gas and electricity contracts, our network of suppliers is extensive to say the least.
We have excellent relationships with around 25 energy suppliers. Some of these energy companies are better priced for smaller sites, others for larger industries. Some for single rate meters, others for Economy 7 meters.
Rest assured, we will have an electricity supplier tailor made for your Newsagents business.
We can also offer you a market-leading choice of green electricity. This is very helpful if you are looking to become a more sustainable business. The cost of green electricity has fallen markedly in recent years. To such an extent, that several suppliers now only offer 100% renewable electricity.
And these can often be the lowest-priced option. Depending on a range of factors, such as the supplier, your electricity region, and movement of wholesale electricity prices.
Newsagent saves 14% on electricity prices
A Newsagent in the North East of England came to us in 2017. They showed us the best prices they were able to get from their current energy provider, for their next contract. And asked if we could better these.
We checked with other suppliers who fitted their consumption and use profile, and saved the owner nearly £200 per year.
And they know we are only a phone call away if they have any questions during their contract.
