We offer both standard and renewable energy through a range of products with prices fixed up to 5 years. Our renewable energy products can help your business with its sustainability goals and net zero ambitions.

For electricity or gas, the earliest timeframe for switching supplier is approximately 5 working days, subject to approval and credit check. If you’re still in contract or have an outstanding balance with your previous supplier there is a chance they may object to your application. If this happens, we’ll let you know. 

Once your application has been accepted, we will send you a welcome pack by email within 48 hours. This confirms your chosen product, supply information and payment plan. Then, as you approach your start date, we will contact you to obtain your first meter reading. This is important as it means we can start to bill you accurately for your service. 

Your gas or electricity supply won’t be affected by switching to SmartestEnergy Business. We’ll take care of everything and make our best endeavours to ensure your switch goes ahead on the target date agreed on your contract. Occasionally existing suppliers may object to your switch, for example if there is an outstanding balance with them. In the unlikely event this happens, we’ll be in touch to notify you and will reattempt the switch on the proposed target date. 

Yes, we accept hospitality businesses including pubs, clubs, restaurants, hotels and takeaways. Visit our products page for further information. 

If your business has a low credit score (below 21), then we will currently not be able to provide you with an energy quote.

All businesses will be credit checked and require a minimum credit score of 21 or above, 1 year of established trading and no CCJs. If a trading entity cannot be located or your credit score is lower than 21, then we will currently not be able to provide you with an energy quote.
