SSE Energy Solutions

Choice:

With SSE Choice, you can fix your wholesale prices for up five years for greater peace of mind. And our highly experienced energy experts do all we can to keep your non-commodity costs stable. While we strive to make accurate predictions and do all we can to keep these costs secure, this product does allow for some fluctuation. If third-party costs are higher than we forecast, the price you pay may increase.

Protect:

With SSE Protect, we not only fix your wholesale prices, but also protect you from any rises in existing non-commodity costs. With prices fixed from the outset, you can budget with certainty for the duration of your contract.

Both Choice & Protect the price your business pays for energy is made up of two groups of charges:

The wholesale price for each unit of gas and electricity you use, which is affected by changes in the energy market.
Other charges known as non-commodity costs, which are set by third parties.
- Non-commodity costs include charges for transporting electricity, government renewable energy initiatives and systems to ensure supply always matches demand.
Suppliers forecast future wholesale prices and non-commodity costs. But the actual rates can vary, and suppliers can pass these changes on to customers.
