Latest Business Gas Rates

July 2026

📉 Market Update – July 2026

Business energy markets have continued to move in a positive direction, with both electricity and gas prices falling further during recent weeks. Improved wholesale market conditions and increased supplier competition have helped deliver more competitive pricing across much of the market.

While geopolitical tensions and wider global events continue to be monitored, the volatility seen earlier this year has eased considerably. Most suppliers remain actively quoting, with many reducing prices further as wholesale costs have softened.

Although market conditions are currently more favourable than they were during the spring, wholesale energy prices can still change quickly in response to global supply issues, weather patterns and economic developments.

For businesses with contracts due for renewal over the coming months, the current market presents a good opportunity to review available options while a broad range of competitive tariffs remains available.
