A standard fixed contract, in most circumstances, guarantees your energy prices won’t change during the fixed term, allowing you to budget for your energy. This could be advantageous if the wholesale energy market is low on the day you agree your contract, or in a rising market. A flexible contract still offers you price certainty but allows you to buy energy in smaller chunks or review prices mid-contract, in a declining market this could be particularly advantageous. If you are a Small business often the choice is between a Fixed or Variable Plan. If you use more power, and energy is more strategic to your business, there tends to be a wider range of choices.
