8 FAQS about our gas buying group
Our expert advisors are used to handling questions about our Gas Buying Group. Below, we’ve tried to answer some of the questions that we get asked most often.
What is a Gas Buying Group?
A gas buying group is an amalgamation of businesses with the purpose of negotiating cheaper gas prices through purchasing collectively. Approved group members team up to buy gas in greater volumes – at the best possible price.
Do I Fit The Bill?
To qualify for our larger buying group your business needs to use a minimum of 100,000kwh of gas per year. This can be split across multiple sites, as long as the total consumption of all sites is above 100,000kwh. We also have a smaller gas buying group for businesses that do not meet the 100,000kwh threshold.
Am I Under Any Kind of Obligation?
If our offer to you is less than 7.5% cheaper than your current rate then you are under no obligation to accept, so there’s nothing to lose.
What if My Current Contract Ends in June?
The buying group contract ends on the 30th September each year. However, if your existing contract with another supplier ends at any other time, we can offer you a short term contract that will expire at the send of September – so you can still enjoy the benefits of buying in bulk.
