How to take part

Energy Deal holds three auction rounds a year, in October, February and May. If your current fixed tariff is not due to expire in the new few months you can still register, then take part in one of the forthcoming rounds.

The scheme is open to all households using gas and electricity who pay monthly, quarterly or via a pre-payment meter. It’s free to register for the scheme, and residents are not obliged to switch energy supplier.

Registration requires details of your energy consumption (found on your energy bill/annual energy statement - preferably in KWh), the name of your current supplier and your current tariff. It’s free to register for the scheme, and residents are not obliged to switch energy supplier.

Due to restrictions on the scheme, we are not allowed to send out reminders to resident who have switched using the scheme in the past two years. Please keep a note of your current tariff expiry date and register for the auction that coincides with that date.

Before registering please ensure you have read the information, which includes recent changes to the auction process, provided in the Kent Energy Deal page.
