Making energy work smarter, not harder, is key to lowering bills

Dhiren Katwa, Community Manager at Tomato Energy offers his thoughts on lowering you energy bills.

What if I told you that a technology millions of us already have in our homes could be used differently to save us all money on our energy bills?

The cost of electricity is as high as it has been for decades, yet the number of people changing electricity supplier is still much lower than before the energy crisis. When it comes to thinking about changing energy supplier, you could be forgiven for thinking they seldom differ – particularly when it comes to the types of tariff they offer.

That’s set to change, however, as for the first time, households have the opportunity to choose a supplier that will design a tariff around your own specific circumstances to help you save money.

Tomato Energy may be a relative newcomer in the energy market, but in the nine years we’ve been servicing business and domestic customers across England, we have learned enough about how the system works and where it lets customers down. Mostly, it’s in inflexibility. Either flat rate, or expensive during the day, cheaper at night tariffs. That’s your lot. With more of us working from home or enjoying flexible working patterns than ever before, those options simply do not reflect today’s world.

We’re going to change all that and shift the balance of power back to consumers. We have developed cutting edge technology that turns your smart meter into a tool that can actively save you money.

Tomato Energy’s unique technology allows us to use your smart meter to create a hyper-personalised tariff around your lifestyle. Our cutting edge software analyses your consumption patterns by analysing your smart meter data then matches you with a tariff that provides cheaper energy rates when you use it most.

We know, however, that not everyone has or wants a smart meter. That’s why Tomato Energy has created a simple flat rate tariff that is up to 15% cheaper than the Energy Price Cap.

Our plans to shake up the energy market don’t stop there. Tomato Energy is making domestic renewable energy more affordable, bringing a mobile-phone style contract to provide solar panels and battery storage to your home, along with meeting your energy needs, with prices starting from just £80 per month**.
