Energy Procurement in Leicester
At Clear Cost Utilities, our gas and electricity procurement services are designed to keep your energy costs as low as possible by creating a strategy tailored specifically to your business needs.

We provide our Leicester clients with all the necessary information to create an effective strategy based on their unique business requirements. By focusing on transparency and eliminating pressure, we ensure that once given the opportunity, we become your chosen energy partner.
Water Procurement In Leicester
The business water market is deregulated, allowing companies to choose their suppliers, leading to better rates and services. The process starts with assessing water needs, usage patterns, and quality requirements. Contract negotiations should focus on length, pricing structure (fixed vs. variable), and additional fees. Many suppliers also offer sustainability services.
Reliable metering is crucial for accurate billing, and advanced metering can provide real-time data. Business water bills detail usage volume, fixed infrastructure charges, and variable fees, so regular reviews are essential to ensure accuracy.

We offer a range of contract options from various UK business energy providers. Our experts will help you find the right deal and provide the best advice for informed decisions. Contract options include:
- Fixed price tariffs

- Green tariffs
Not necessarily. Suppliers often prioritise profit over offering the lowest tariffs. The key decision is timing—knowing when to act is crucial, so expert guidance is essential. At Clear Cost, we develop a tailored strategy for your business, ensuring you make decisions when market conditions are favourable.
When comparing your business energy with Clear Cost, you leverage our strong supplier relationships to secure the best deal for your needs. We prioritize our customers over supplier profits, which is why we partner with a leading UK aggregator to provide an unbiased energy comparison across all UK suppliers.
A Letter of Authority (LoA) is a document that grants permission for one party to act on behalf of another. In the context of business energy, it allows a broker or consultant to access account information, negotiate contracts, and manage energy procurement on behalf of a business. This document is essential for ensuring that the broker can communicate with suppliers and make informed decisions without direct involvement from the business owner.
Energy prices can change daily similar to the stock markets. An energy supplier is simply buying the energy for you and billing you for it, as the price they purchase changes daily so does your quote.
Fixed business energy tariffs offer financial security, with unit prices remaining the same for the contract's duration. This makes budgeting easier, which is ideal for SMEs with less financial flexibility & for those who wish to take less risk!
Variable business energy tariffs differ from fixed tariffs in that prices fluctuate with the wholesale energy market. The advantage is that you could pay significantly less when energy prices are low. However, if prices rise, your bills may increase unexpectedly.
Flexible (or flex) tariffs are typically available to large businesses or those with multiple sites in the UK. They involve purchasing energy directly from the wholesale market in smaller quantities. Reliable suppliers offer guidance on when to buy, often through account managers or online tools. Consider how much time you can invest in energy management before opting for this. The downside is that, like variable tariffs, prices can fluctuate, potentially increasing costs. However, with proper guidance, you can buy when prices are favorable. Market crises may disrupt this stability.
The Competition Markets Authority estimates that 1.2 million UK businesses are overpaying their energy suppliers, leading to excess profits of around £500 million. Many businesses allow contracts to roll onto standard tariffs, which can be very costly. By comparing, you could save on your annual energy bill, and we’ll ensure you never roll onto a more expensive tariff again—saving your business time and money.
