Why switch to a new energy supplier?

If you haven’t changed your energy provider in over a year, it’s likely you’ll save money when you switch.

Most gas and electricity suppliers offer big discounts to new customers for the first 12 months. However, when this discount period ends, you’ll pay the standard rate, which is often much higher.

Switching is easy, and a customer moving from a standard tariff to a cheaper deal could save up to €679.

How much could you save?

It depends on how closely your usage matches with the average Irish household but based on the Commission for Regulation of Utilities (CRU) figures, you could expect to save:

  • Up to €431 on electricity
  • Up to €255 on gas
  • Up to €679 on dual fuel

In addition to discounts, some suppliers also offer other incentives to new customers, such as welcome credit or vouchers, so it’s worth taking time to compare prices and plan features.

How to choose an energy supplier and switch

The best way to choose a new energy supplier and deal is to carry out an energy price comparison.

To compare deals, all you need is a recent energy bill and to answer a few quick questions about your current supply.

You’ll get the most accurate results if you enter your actual energy consumption (which you can find on your bills), but if you don’t have this, use the national averages to discover how much you could save.
