Business Gas Help
Small Business Gas Prices
Business gas prices for a small business are 7.5p per kWh on average in June 2025, with an average daily standing charge of 39.7p. This means that business gas costs £74.45 a month, or £893.35 a year for small business using 10,000 kWh of commercial gas a year, and whose 2-year fixed-price contract began on June 1, 2025.
Small business owners are negatively impacted by business gas bills being higher than they need to be. One solution is to sign up for a fixed business gas contract for two or three years, for predictable billing. A fixed business gas price also makes budgeting easier.
Medium Business Gas Prices
Business gas prices for a medium-sized business are 7.4p per kWh on average, with a daily standing charge of 38.4p. This means that on average, a medium business whose business gas contract begins in June 2025 can expect to pay £1,614.64 a year.
Business Gas Prices For Large Consumption
Large businesses - those that use between 50,000 kWh to 100,000 kWh of gas per year - can expect to be charged a unit rate of 6.4p per kWh with a daily standing charge of 120.5p, and for a business using the median figure of 75,000 kWh, they can expect to pay around £5,213.42 per year for their business gas bill, for a two-year contract commencing in June 2025.
Business Gas Rates - Breaking Down Your Business Gas Bill
Business gas rates are made up of four costs that combined make up your business gas bill:
- Unit Rate (p per kWh)
- Standing Charge (p per day)
- VAT at 20% (or 5%)
- Climate Change Levy (CCL)
Unit Rate
Your unit rate is how much you are charged for each unit (kWh) of gas you use. This is charged in pence per kWh. A kWh is a unit for measuring energy usage and your business gas meter will measure your exact usage.
Standing charge
Your standing charge is a set daily fee. This is paid regardless of how much gas you have used that day. A standing charge covers the cost of your gas supply.
VAT
You should also take into account the effect of taxes on your business gas bill. Businesses are required to pay VAT at a higher rate of 20%, although non-profit businesses are eligible for a reduced VAT rate.
Climate Change Levy (CCL)
On top of this, businesses must pay the Climate Change Levy (CCL). This is an environmental tax which is added to your bill.
It’s important to consider all costs before switching business gas. A tariff with a lower unit rate and a high-standing charge could cost you more in the long term.
Our team will work with you to consider all this when finding the best business gas deal for you.

Choosing a Business Gas Tariffs Type
Finding the cheapest business gas prices - and saving money on your gas usage - begins with selecting the right tariff type for your business. Don't get caught out by signing up to the wrong tariff.
When it comes to commercial gas usage, there are four tariff types you can choose, and each caters to a set of needs.
These tariff types are: fixed -rate tariffs, variable-rate tariffs, rollover tariffs and deemed rate tariffs
Each tariff has benefits, including secure prices and flexibility.
We'll discuss these tariff types in some more depth below:
-
Fixed-Rate Tariffs
The unit price you pay for business gas will be fixed for the agreed contract length.
This is great for budgeting and being able to secure an affordable unit price without any surprises. Most business gas comparison deals will be for a fixed-price business gas deal, however there are few variations to this: green or renewable tariffs, no standing charge and time-of-use tariffs.
-
Time-of-Use Tariffs (Economy 7)
Time-of-Use, better known as Economy 7 or Economy 10, are multi-rate tariffs, where your charged based on peak times or off-peak times. With these tariffs, your business gas prices will be cheaper at night, from the time your off-peak rates begin. These tariffs makes sense for businesses that use their energy during off-peak hours.
Not all time-of-use tariffs have the same off-peak times, so when choosing an Economy 7 tariff, confirm the start time of off-peak prices and choose the one that suits your business best.
-
No Standing Charge Tariffs
Some businesses can benefit from a tariff with no standing charge (but may have a higher unit rate). A business gas price comparison will help you decide if such a tariff is right for you.
-
Renewable Tariffs
Businesses that need to meet ESG requirements or need to report on their Scope 2 emissions need to sign up to a green or renewable business gas tariff. These tariffs are backed by either carbon offset certificates or REGO certificates. Our business gas experts can advise you on the correct tariff for your business.
-
Variable-Rate Tariffs
Variable-rate gas tariffs offer great flexibility.
The unit price you pay for business gas will go up or down each month. A great option for businesses that value flexibility and are willing to take more risks.
-
Rollover Tariff
Businesses will be placed on a rollover gas tariff if a new deal has not been agreed.
This is a legal contract for one year and the unit rate can be more expensive than previously paid.
-
Deemed Rate Tariffs
Deemed rate tariffs are for businesses moving into new premises and have not agreed to a deal.
This only happens when a business gas contract has never been in place at the property.
-
Pass-through tariffs
In a pass-through tariff, third-party costs are passed on directly from your commercial gas supplier to your business. This tariff type allows a business to be in control of every element of its business gas costs, although it does come with the risk of these costs fluctuating and the benefit of lower business gas costs.

What To Consider Before Comparing Business Gas Tariffs
Business gas tariffs are impacted by the way your business consumes gas. This could be how much gas you use, the type of gas you use, or when your business consumes gas. Business gas suppliers will take these thing into account when giving you a business gas quote.
If your business operates seasonally, a no-standing charge tariff could offer the best savings, if available. With a no-standing charge tariff, you won’t be charged any fees when you are not using your business gas.
It’s important to consider your business needs before signing any business gas contracts. Businesses are not able to secure a dual fuel tariff. This means that companies must switch business gas and business electricity contracts separately.
You may get a better business gas deal by looking more closely at your unit rates. For example, a higher standing charge may offset any savings you make with cheaper unit rates.
Large businesses that consume more than 200,000 kWh of gas a year can often access exclusive deals. Due to the amount of gas used, large businesses need to access tariffs tailored to their needs.
For small and micro businesses, finding business gas rates cheaper is the main goal. Several business gas suppliers offer deals specifically targeted to small businesses. These can include tariffs with a fully online service to reduce overheads and costs.
What Details Do I Need To Get A Business Gas Quote?
The only details you need for a business gas price quote with Business Electricity Prices are as follows:
- Your business name
- Address, phone number and email
From there, our tech-driven price comparison engine will look up the important information that’s needed to generate cheap business gas quotes in just 30 seconds. What we’ll look up, with your permission:
- Gas meter number (MPRN) - we’ll use this to identify the meter associated with your business premises.
- Previous gas usage - we’ll use this to identify the correct tariff for your business’ gas consumption.
- Contract end date - we’ll use this to identify if you are within your business gas supplier switching window.
10 Reasons To Compare Business Gas Prices
-
Business Gas Contract End Date (CED) Is Approaching/Has Passed
Business gas contracts end on a pre-agreed date, the contract end date, or CED. If you've not agreed a new deal with your business gas supplier, you will be placed on a rollover tariff which is likely to be more expensive.
Businesses are allowed to agree a new business gas deal from 12-months before the contract end date. You can agree a deal with your existing supplier, or with a new one. The period of time that begins 12-months before the day your business gas contract ends - your Contract End Date (CED) - is known as your renewal window.
Businesses in their renewal window should compare business gas prices to avoid rollover tariffs, and those whose contract end date has passed and find themselves on a rollover tariff should compare to switch to a better business gas tariff immediately. The benefit of rollover tariffs is you are no longer locked in to your commercial gas supplier and you can switch at any time.
-
Your Current Business Gas Prices Are Too High
If you think you’re paying too much for your business gas, you might well be! Compare deals from multiple business gas suppliers in seconds and switch to a cheaper tariff.
-
Dissatisfied With Current Supplier Customer Services
Switching business gas providers is not always about cost. If you feel like the customer service is not good enough, that’s another good reason to compare prices and switch. Some supplier offer additional benefits and conveniences that are worth paying a little extra for. Whereas sometimes a less-frills-is-more approach suits you.
-
Need For Sustainable Energy
Businesses that need sustainable, renewable or green tariffs are best off comparing tariffs from various suppliers to see which meets their needs best. While sustainable tariffs typically have a small premium over their brown energy equivalents, not all sustainable tariffs are equal, making comparison essential.
-
A Long Time Has Passed Since You Changed Business Gas Suppliers
Businesses that haven’t changed business gas suppliers in several years may find they are overpaying on a rollover contract. With wholesale gas prices constantly changing, securing a fixed business gas contract may reduce your monthly costs quite significantly.
-
You’ve Always Been With Your Default Business Gas Supplier
Businesses that have been with the same supplier since they moved into their current premises may also find they are better off comparing business gas prices to secure a cheaper deal. If you are the first tenant in your premises, you will be on a deemed tariff, and find yourself overpaying.
-

-
Adding A New Business Location
Business is booming, and you’ve decided to open an additional location. Why not compare and see if your new location needs a separate gas supplier, or maybe a multi-meter tariff is more suitable.
-

If wholesale prices have dropped, then the price of business gas you’ll be quoted will have also dropped, meaning you save money on your business gas costs. So keep an eye out on the trends on wholesale prices, and switch to a better deal when they are lower than your existing rates. Conversely, if wholesale prices begin to rise, you can protect yourself by securing a fixed price and seeing out the high wholesale prices.

How Have Business Gas Prices Changed in 2025?

What Impacts Business Gas Prices?

- Your business location
- The size of your premises
- Your current gas supplier
- Your current business gas spend
- Your current business gas consumption
- Your gas meter type
- Current gas market prices

Do I Have To Pay A Standing Charge On My Business Gas?
It may be possible to get a contract for your business with no standing charge. This is not always the cheapest option due to higher unit prices on commercial gas, but it could be beneficial if your usage is low. For example, this could be a suitable choice for a business that closes during weekends or only runs seasonally.
-
Can I Cancel My Business Gas Contract Early?
Most suppliers will allow you to cancel your contract early, however, that will come with a cancellation fee, which, depending on your usage, may cost you more in the long run.
If you find a great deal that you can’t pass on but still have up to 12 months before your contract ends you can always secure those rates by entering the date you want your next one to start. Your renewal window is usually 12 months before your contract ends, and it is a good time to lock in prices instead of cancelling your current contract and avoiding paying any early exit fees.
It’s always a good idea to check your suppliers’ cancellation policy for the finer details. If you are a Business Electricity Prices customer, get in touch with your account manager and we will handle the whole process for you.
-
Should I Switch To A Business Renewable Gas Tariff?
If you want your business to be more eco-friendly and sustainable, particularly in line with the recent ESG updates, it is always a great idea to switch to a renewable business gas tariff or move to an energy supplier that can offer this service.
Over the recent years, we have seen a dramatic decrease in the costs of having renewable energy, and it has become more widely available for both business and domestic.
Green business gas is usually made from plants or animals, anything that can be produced sustainably.
-
How Much is VAT On My Business Gas?
20% is usually the VAT rate for business gas, but depending on your company, you may be eligible for some VAT discounts.
The VAT is automatically added to your bill and will be shown in the total amount. If you do apply for any VAT discount, you will need to apply for this separately.
-
Are Business Gas Prices Going Down?
Business gas prices are currently the lowest they have been in years. We have recently noticed a lot of businesses locking in prices whilst they are cheap, as the future of the gas industry remains uncertain.
-
How Do I Cancel My Business Gas Contract?
To cancel your business gas contract, contact your gas supplier directly. Provide them with relevant account details and discuss the cancellation process. Be aware of any potential cancellation fees or notice periods outlined in your contract.

-
Can I Get A Business Gas Contract If I Work From Home?
Yes, you can still get a business gas contract if you work from home. Many energy providers offer business energy plans for individuals operating from home offices.
Contact your preferred supplier, provide information about your business activities, and discuss the appropriate business gas contract options for your situation.
-
How Do I Read A Business Gas Meter?
To read a business gas meter, locate the meter and record the numbers displayed from left to right. Include all digits excluding any numbers in red.
Keep track of both the current reading and the previous one to calculate your gas usage. This information is essential for accurate billing and monitoring of consumption.
-
Can I Get A Business Gas Smart Meter?
Not everyone is eligible for a business gas smart meter installation, due to poor data connectivity in some locations, and some energy suppliers only provide smart meters for business electricity customers. If you rent your property, you need to check with your landlord if there’s anything in your tenancy agreement that may inhibit the installation of a business gas smart meter.
That being said, all you need to do to find out if you’re eligible, is:
- Request a smart meter from your supplier. If you work with a TPI or energy broker, request a smart meter from the TPI, who will contact the supplier on your behalf.
- Book a slot. If you’re eligible, then book a time and date for the installation of your smart meter.
- Get the meter installed on the time and day you've booked the engineer to come.
After that, enjoy the benefits of automated half hourly readings being sent to your business gas supplier.
-
Can I Switch Suppliers If My Business Gas Is Supplied By An Independent Gas Transporter (IGT)?
If your MPRN number begins with 74, 75, 76 or 77, then your gas comes from an Independent Gas Transporter (IGT) instead of the National Grid.
An IGT is a company responsible for handling gas supply for the gas pipes between a property and the end of the National Grid’s pipeline.
That being said, your business gas rates will be the same as a business that is connected to the National Grid, and the process of switching gas suppliers is the same.
