Business energy rates in the UK are not capped by Ofgem and are negotiated directly with suppliers or brokers. Unit rates and standing charges vary by region, meter type (half-hourly or non-half-hourly), consumption profile and contract length. Typical SME electricity unit rates in 2026 range from 20p to 35p per kWh. From April 2025 Ofgem requires energy brokers to disclose commission to business customers before contracts are signed (Ofgem Business Energy Code of Practice, 2026). |
