The unit rate in p/kWh
Gas is priced in pence per kilowatt hour, with a standing charge beside it. Both lines make the annual cost.

Business Gas
Compared across the panel, with the end date kept on record.
Business gas pricing moves with the wholesale market, and contracts that are left to auto-renew often roll onto uncompetitive rates. We track your renewal window, compare fixed and flexible options, and put a new contract in place before your current one expires.

The MPRN
The meter point reference on the gas bill identifies the supply. We start the comparison from that number.
One to five years
A longer fix holds the price for budgeting. A shorter fix returns you to the market sooner.
With the electricity
The two fuels can be compared together, so the end dates are kept on one record.
Compare gas supplier prices
Gas unit rates set out supplier by supplier, for the same kind of small business supply.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 British Gas Lite | 6.2pper kWh | £0.55/day | 1–3 years | 4.2/5 | |
 E.ON | 5.9pper kWh | £0.48/day | 1–5 years | 4.5/5 | |
 SSE | 6.5pper kWh | £0.62/day | 2–4 years | 4.1/5 | |
 EDF | 5.6pper kWh | £0.45/day | 1–4 years | 4.6/5 | |
 ScottishPower | 6.1pper kWh | £0.52/day | 1–3 years | 4.3/5 | |
 Opus Energy | 5.8pper kWh | £0.51/day | 1–4 years | 4.4/5 | |
 Corona Energy | 6.4pper kWh | £0.58/day | 2–5 years | 4.0/5 |
Sample rates for a typical small business, so the differences are easy to see. A live quote uses your meter and the prices available that day.
The end date is the useful number
A gas contract that is left to expire can move onto a deemed rate, the same way electricity can. The comparison starts from the MPRN and the date on the bill, three to six months before the end. The pipes do not change when the supplier does.

The contract
Three to six months before the contract ends. That is the window in which suppliers will usually offer a new contract. Later than that, the choice of rates narrows.
