More than 1.2 million households and businesses have turned away from the so-call ‘green’ electricity bills with their fluctuating prices to flock into the fixed-price “blue” bills, with 12- to 24-month contracts that are now significantly cheaper.

In the first five months of 2025 alone, 241,258 consumers have switched over to fixed-price contracts. Electricity providers jostling for a higher share of the market also push for consumers to opt for fixed prices.
