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. 120 entities, searchable by trading name, licence holder, parent or company number. 16 of these are covered in depth in the directory above and route there automatically, leaving 104 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.

Showing 1 to 25 of 120 UK non-domestic suppliers.

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.

Who is the biggest UK electricity supplier?

Two league tables built from Elexon's settlement data: the largest domestic suppliers (households) and the largest commercial suppliers (the non-domestic market Purely serves). Ranked by electricity meter points for 2025 Q1, refreshed automatically each quarter as Elexon publishes.

Who is the biggest UK gas supplier?

Gas is not as open as electricity. Electricity supplier volumes are published quarterly by Elexon (the league tables above), but named-supplier gas market share sits with Xoserve, the gas market's central data body, behind a Data Services Contract, so there is no public business-gas league table to rank. We will not invent one.

What the public data does show

  • Domestic gas: Ofgem publishes named-supplier domestic market share. British Gas has long been the largest domestic gas supplier. See Ofgem's retail market indicators.
  • Business gas: no free named-supplier dataset exists. The major suppliers by business gas are the same large players you see in the electricity tables (British Gas, Corona Energy, SEFE, Crown Gas & Power, TotalEnergies), but a ranked share is not publicly published.
  • Live system: National Gas publishes where gas physically enters the network in real time, shown opposite.

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.

Out-of-contract vs fixed-rate, run the numbers

Sites that roll past their contract end date drop onto deemed or out-of-contract rates, which can sit well above current fixed offers. Enter your actual rate to see the difference, or read the out-of-contract rates for all 16 suppliers, compared.

Out-of-contract vs fixed-rate savings

Enter your current out-of-contract rate (from your bill or the supplier's deemed rates page) and a fixed-rate scenario to compare. We do not invent supplier rates, you enter the figures you have.
