Should I switch my energy deal?

The energy price cap is set at £1,758 from 1 January to 31 March 2026, but will drop to £1,641 – a 7% decrease – for the period from 1 April to 30 June. This is because the government has pledged to take an average of £150 off energy bills from 1 April, which is being factored into this price cap (although all customers will benefit, including those on fixed tariffs). You don’t necessarily need to wait until April for the price cap to drop so you can save, though.

Smarter home insights, in your hands

The energy price cap affects around 22 million UK households without fixed deals, which usually means those customers have higher energy costs. It caps the amount suppliers can charge for each unit of energy, along with daily standing charges. 

However, it doesn’t cap your total bill. Using more energy than the cap means you’ll pay more.

From 1 January to 31 March 2026, the cap is £1,758 for Direct Debit customers and £1,711 for prepayment customers.

Simple Process

How can I save on my energy bills?

Along with signing up for a cheaper energy deal, there are some other options to help make sure you’re not paying higher bills than you need to.

Track your energy usage

Connecting your smart meter to an app like the Uswitch app is an easy way to see if you’re using more energy than you need. You can then take energy-saving steps to keep your bills as low as possible. It might be as simple as reducing the time you spend in the shower or turning your thermostat down slightly.

Submit regular meter readings

If you don’t have a smart meter, submitting regular meter readings will ensure your account is kept up to date and that you get charged the right amount for the energy you’ve used. Set a reminder in your calendar to submit readings every month to your provider, to stay on track.

Consider home energy efficiency upgrades

Improving your wall or loft insulation, investing in more energy-efficient appliances or replacing your old boiler with a new one could significantly reduce the amount you pay for energy each year. However, these home improvements can be expensive and may not be suitable for everyone.

Energy prices and suppliers FAQs

Why should I switch energy?

The main reason to switch energy is to find a cheaper deal than the one you’re currently on. This hasn’t been easy because the wholesale energy market crisis has caused high prices. With the market more stable, though, suppliers are offering affordable fixed energy deals again. You may still wish to stay on a standard variable energy tariff if you’re on one. For price certainty, run an energy comparison to find a better deal.

Energy prices can change every day as they reflect the market news. If you’re on a variable plan, your rates will change throughout the year. They’re set at £1,758 from 1 January to 31 March 2026 but will drop to £1,641 from 1 April. On a fixed plan, your rates will stay the same during the fixed period.
Energy prices have risen, with deals a lot more expensive than they were a few years ago. A standard variable tariff, which is capped at £1,758 from 1 January to 31 March 2026 (and £1,641 from 1 April to 30 June), is usually the most expensive deal for customers. Fixed deals can offer price certainty and, increasingly, significant savings, so it’s worth running an energy comparison.

The cheapest gas and electricity supplier could be different for everyone. It depends on factors like usage, your current deal and where you live. When comparing energy deals, be as accurate as possible with your information so we can find the cheapest provider for you.
The best gas and electricity supplier for you won’t necessarily be the same as the best supplier for your neighbour. It depends on what’s important to you in a provider. You can use Uswitch to filter deals by factors other than price, like green energy.
After confirming, you’ll get an email from your chosen supplier within a day or two to notify you that it’s going ahead. Once it’s completed you’ll get another email confirming you’re officially getting your energy from your new provider. Your supply won’t be cut off at any point, so just sit back and relax.
Those who use both gas and electricity may prefer to look at energy prices for gas-only energy deals or electricity-only energy deals, rather than combining them in one deal. This can sometimes work out cheaper than a dual fuel energy deal depending on the supplier. You can see deals for electricity-only deals on the results table by using the filters provided, but we don’t currently compare gas-only deals.
You can switch if you’ve been in debt for less than 28 days; the debt will be added to your final bill. If you’ve been in debt for longer, you won’t be able to move until you’ve settled that debt (unless the supplier’s billed you incorrectly). If you’re on a prepayment meter, you can switch as long as the debt to your current provider is less than £500.

Yes, you can switch energy if you’re on a prepayment meter. Select ‘Prepayment meter’ when you’re asked how you pay your energy bills. You can tell you’re on a prepayment meter if you pay in advance with a smart card, token or key. You can also move away from using a prepayment meter by replacing it with a credit meter.
