The right time to switch your energy supplier

The experts at Energyprice.be analyse the evolution in average energy prices for you on a daily basis. Switching energy supplier is easy. This is the way to proceed.

While 2020 was all about saving money in the energy sector, 2021 proved to be a headache, with electricity and gas prices increasing drastically. In 2024, we have returned to a more stable situation. Regardless of the economic conditions, should you compare suppliers on a regular basis?

It is worth switching gas and electricity supplier?

The only component of your energy bill that is subject to competition is the price per kWh you pay your supplier. The transmission and distribution tariffs as well as the taxes are set by CREG, the federal energy regulator. These costs make up a large part of your total bill, but you shouldn’t overlook the tariffs set by your supplier, especially since the liberalisation of the energy market. This is when many suppliers arrived on the market and the competition really started.

As an energy expert, Energyprice.be advises you to change your pricing plan or supplier without delay if you think your bills are too high.
