Ecotricity in brief

A few things we thought you might like to know more about

  • We founded the green electricity movement in 1995.
  • We build wind turbines, produce green electricity and we supply that to our customers.
  • We’re the UK’s oldest and most successful independent electricity company.
  • We supply nearly 40,000 customers and growing fast.
  • We’ve built over 8% of England’s wind turbines.
  • We spend more per customer building new sources of green energy than any other company in the world and more than all other UK suppliers put together.

In fact, it′s the biggest change you can bring about with your electricity bill. For every pound you spend on your electricity bill we spend nearly another pound building new sources of green electricity. We like to think of it as ‘turning electricity bills into windmills′. And the more customers we have the more we can build - it’s that simple.

Our policy (and our promise) is to price match the Big Six for their standard ‘brown’ electricity. Most people are still with the regional supplier (one of the Big Six) and so switching to Ecotricity won’t cost a penny more. If you’ve switched to a cheaper deal though, we will cost a little more - we can’t price match the price cutters and keep building.
Check your price.

There are two. Our main tariff is New Energy, dedicated to new build, this is the greenest tariff in the UK bar none - and price matched to the Big Six. We also offer New Energy Plus for people that want a 100% green supply now, while we build more.

We're not a conventional power company, we don't think or work in the same way as they do. Call us and you'll be speaking to one of us, someone who knows all about what we do - somebody keen to help you.

It probably couldn′t be easier. You can sign up in about five minutes here, or call us on 08000 302 302 and do it. We′ll take care of the rest. The only thing that changes at your end is who you pay your next electricity bill to. And that′s a big change. The biggest you can make.
