Rising energy costs are one of the biggest pressures facing UK businesses today. At Phonate Power Energy, we give you access to the entire electricity market, so you’re never locked into a deal that doesn’t fit your needs.
Our energy specialists work with you to understand your consumption patterns, budget requirements, and appetite for price risk. We then match you to the most appropriate contract structure, whether that’s the predictability of a fully fixed tariff or the market-linked advantages of a flexible or pass-through contract.
We offer pricing out to end of curve, meaning you can lock in rates as far into the future as the market allows — giving your finance team genuine long-term visibility.
Contract Types Available:
- Standard Fixed: Set price for the contract term
- Fully Fixed: All costs locked, no surprises
- Pass Through: Unit rate fixed, network costs variable
- Flexible / Basket: Buy in tranches as prices move
- Energy Only: Commodity cost separated out
We apply the same rigorous, whole-of-market approach to gas as we do to electricity. Whether you’re a small commercial operation or a large industrial consumer, we have the supplier’s relationships and market expertise to secure competitive rates on your behalf.
Our team will assess your current contract status, consumption data, and procurement goals before recommending a strategy. We handle the comparison, negotiation, and switching process, so your team can stay focused on running the business.
With energy markets remaining volatile, having an independent broker in your corner means you benefit from both market timing expertise and ongoing contract management support.
Many businesses are still unaware that the UK business water market was deregulated in April 2017, giving commercial customers in England the same freedom to switch water retailers as they have with electricity and gas.
Switching water supplier won’t affect your supply; the infrastructure stays the same, but it can meaningfully reduce what you pay for your water and wastewater services. Our team manages the entire process, from identifying your best-value supplier to handling the switch with no disruption to your operations.
Phonate Power Energy provides the service, support, and implementation expertise to make your water switch smooth and cost-effective.
Independent expertise, not supplier sales targets
As independent energy brokers, our only obligation is to you. We educate and guide rather than sell, because the right contract for your business is the one that fits your actual risk profile, not the one with the highest commission.
- Whole-of-market access: We compare every supplier, not just those we have preferred agreements.
- Tailored risk profiling: We assess your tolerance for price volatility before recommending any contract type.
- Education-first approach: We explain every option in plain English so you can make an informed decision.
- All three utilities: Electricity, gas, and water — one broker, one relationship, one point of contact.
Frequently Asked Questions
Most electricity and gas switches are complete within 4–6 weeks. Water switches in England typically take 2–4 weeks. We manage the entire process on your behalf.
Generally, you can switch at or near the end of your contract term. We’ll review your current contract terms and advise on the best timing — and whether any exit fees make early termination worthwhile.
Rather than fixing your entire energy cost upfront, a flexible or basket contract lets you buy energy in tranches over time, potentially benefiting from price dips in the wholesale market. It carries more risk than a fixed deal but can deliver savings for the right businesses.
Our service is typically funded by a broker fee paid by the supplier, which is embedded in your unit rate. We are transparent about how we’re remunerated and will always disclose this to you before you sign any contract.
