Review of Eon Energy Tariffs:

  • Standard Variable (Standing Charge: 26 pence, Unit Rate: 14.52 pence) – Fully variable, no cancellation fees, 20 pound discount if you take both gas and electricity, but at a large premium of 2.75 pence/kWh. Will cost 60-140 pounds more per year depending on usage. Too expensive, better to fix for one year (see below)
  • Energy Fixed 1 Year (Standing Charge: 24 pence, Unit Rate: 11.77 pence) – Fixed, will not fall if prices fall, 5 pound cancellation fees, 20 pound discount if you take both gas and electricity. Best rate from Eon Energy.
  • Energy Fixed 2 Year (Standing Charge: 25 pence, Unit Rate: 12.36 pence) – Fixed for longer, but at a premium of 0.59 pence/kWh, 20 pound discount if you take both gas and electricity. Will cost 12-30 pounds more per year depending on usage. Best if price rises of 10%+  are expected during next two years.
