Compare Gas And Electricity Suppliers

How can I save money on my gas and electricity bills?

There are two ways to save money on your gas and electricity bills:

1. Pay less for energy by switching suppliers
2. Use less energy by monitoring your consumption

Switching suppliers is the easiest way to save money on your electricity and gas bills.

There are 10 suppliers in the Irish market and each of them offers big discounts and cashback incentives to new customers who switch. However, these discounts usually expire after 12 months so it’s important to switch every year to make sure you’re always on the cheapest price plan available.

Another way to lower your energy bills is to consume less.

You can do this by figuring out which appliances in your home use the most gas and electricity and then looking for ways to reduce your consumption.
