      What is the termination notice period?

      Please read your supplier terms and conditions as your minim termination notice is detailed there, however as a general rule of thumb supplier termination notice periods can be between 30 and 90 days.

      How much do I need to pay to terminate my energy contract early?

      Most business energy suppliers will require you to pay the remainin consumption on your contract to exit early.

      This can be calculated by your unit rates multiplied by the number of units (kWh) left on your contract.

      E.G

      If you contract was agreed for 2 years with a 20,000 kWh consumption forecast and you wish to exit your contract 1 year early would mean:

      14p /kWh multiplied by 10,000 kWh’s = £1,400.00

      This would be your early termination fee.
