This is a public market reference, not a list of suppliers Purely Energy holds contracts with. Our quoting process runs your consumption profile against the wider UK market, including challenger suppliers that the largest brokers often skip.

Full UK business energy supplier directory

Every UK non-domestic gas and electricity licensee on the Ofgem register, normalised under the trading name your business will actually see on a contract. 119 entities, searchable by trading name, licence holder, parent or company number. 14 of these are covered in depth in the directory above and route there automatically, leaving 105 long-tail suppliers with their own lighter profile page.

Each profile shows the trading name, every Ofgem licence held under that name, contact details and rate-availability status. Where the licence holder is a UK limited company we also publish live business intelligence drawn from Purely Energy's independent research on each supplier: incorporation date and years trading, current ultimate owner, employee headcount, the latest five filed years of turnover, profit and balance-sheet position, and credit risk band. That gives you a single page to assess whether a supplier is large, growing, financially sound and worth inviting into a tender, before you ever pick up the phone.

Built directly from Ofgem's authoritative registers, the list of all electricity licensees including suppliers and the list of all gas licensees including suppliers. Both are the official record of every company licensed by Ofgem to supply non-domestic energy in Great Britain.

Data sources

Licence-holder data is taken from the Ofgem all-licensees register and re-checked against Companies House and the supplier's own website. The two source registers are published and maintained by Ofgem, the Office of Gas and Electricity Markets:

Trading names, contact details and out-of-contract rate information change frequently. Always verify on the supplier's own website before relying on a number, rate or renewal date.

UK supplier electricity market share

Compare suppliers by their non-domestic (B2B) import meters, export meters, and average MWh per meter for FY24/25, sourced from Elexon's quarterly Energy Volumes and Number of Metering Systems datasets. Domestic-only volumes are filtered out so the picture matches what a business buyer actually sees in the market.
