Switching to the best cheap energy deal isn't just about money. As well as highlighting the cheapest energy deals in your area, we've also picked out excellent green deals across England, Scotland and Wales from the best green energy suppliers. Sometimes the cheapest energy deals are green, but where they're not we've highlighted an alternative green option too. And if the cheapest deal is a standard variable rate tariff, we've also included the cheapest fixed-rate option.
All the prices are calculated according to a typical household’s annual fuel consumption: 12,000kWk of gas and 2,900kWh of electricity. The savings have been benchmarked against the energy price cap of £1,042 per year - which came into force on October 1.
Please remember that you may save more, or less, depending on your current situation.
And don't forget that energy prices vary across the country and depending on use: to find the very best energy deal for your household, and see the exact savings you'll make by switching, you'll need to run a quick energy comparison.

Where you live determines what the best cheap energy deal is, as prices and tariffs vary across the UK. That's why we’ve painstakingly compared gas and electric tariffs in every region and split them out below, so you can jump straight to the right place.
That means that average prices and savings are region-specific, rather than an overall national average. This gives you a much more accurate idea of how much you could save if you switch - but you'll need to run a price comparison to get your personalised savings estimate.
We’ve included the best cheap energy deal, the best green energy suppliers, and the best cheap fixed-rate tariff in our comparison below. But don't forget to compare energy prices at your address to get the most accurate deals.
