Indicative split for a UK I&C electricity bill in 2026, sourced from Cornwall Insight's non-commodity cost research. Your meter, region and contract type shift the exact mix, but the four components are always present.
- Wholesale energy, 38%Gas or power bought on the wholesale market. The figure most coverage focuses on.
- Non-commodity costs, 53%Network charges (DUoS, TNUoS), policy levies (RO, FiT, CfD, Capacity Market), CCL and balancing costs.
- Supplier margin, 6%What the supplier earns. Always priced into the unit rate.
- Broker margin, 3%What we earn for tendering and managing the contract. Shown separately on every Purely Energy quote.

Switching from Data Energy to a fixed business contract
UK businesses can switch gas supply away from Data Energy once their fixed contract ends, or after resolving any open objection or termination-window issue. The process is the same for every supplier on the non-domestic market, but a few checks done in the right order make the transfer materially faster.
- 1. Find your contract end date. It's on your last renewal letter or the most recent bill from Data Energy. Most non-domestic contracts have a 1 to 6 month termination window before that date, outside of which you may auto-roll onto a new fixed term.
- 2. Get your MPRN ready. The 21-digit MPAN (electricity) and 6 to 10-digit MPRN (gas) uniquely identify each meter and are needed for any competing quote. Both appear on your bill.
- 3. Compare against the live market. Data Energy doesn't publish standard out-of-contract rates, so request a written renewal quote first and benchmark it against live market prices before agreeing anything. Purely Energy can run your meters against the wider UK panel and come back with the cheapest fixed offers.
- 4. Settle the final bill and clear any objections. Data Energy will issue a final bill within 6 weeks of supply transferring. If a balance is outstanding, they can object to the switch under industry rules, so clear it before the transfer date to avoid a hold.
- 5. Sign the new contract. Once the new supplier has your MPAN/MPRN and signed contract, the transfer typically completes within 4 to 8 weeks. There is no break in supply, you simply receive your first bill from the new supplier.

FAQs
Who supplies energy under the Data Energy brand?+
The Ofgem non-domestic licence is held by DATA ENERGY MANAGEMENT SERVICES LTD., ultimately part of Data Energy Management Services Limited (Company No. 02668566). The trading name on your bill or contract may differ from the licence holder, which is normal and reflects how UK energy is regulated.
What is the Data Energy business contact number?+
Data Energy can be reached on 01279 810 120 or by email at info@dataenergy.co.uk. The official contact page is https://dataenergy.co.uk/contact/.
Does Data Energy publish out-of-contract rates?+
Data Energy does not appear to publish a standard deemed or out-of-contract rate online. Business customers should request a written renewal quote in advance of their contract end date and compare it against live market prices.
Can I switch away from Data Energy?+
In most cases, businesses can switch gas supply away from Data Energy at the end of a fixed-term contract or after resolving any objections, debt, termination-window, or meter-data issues. The safest route is to check your contract terms, final bill position, and renewal dates before starting a transfer.
How long does it take to switch from Data Energy?+
Once a new supplier has the meter point details (MPAN/MPRN) and a signed contract, a non-domestic switch typically completes within 4 to 8 weeks. Supply does not break: the new supplier takes over billing on the transfer date.
Is Data Energy a UK-licensed supplier?+
Yes. Data Energy is on the Ofgem non-domestic licensee register for gas. Ofgem maintains the official register at ofgem.gov.uk.
What are out-of-contract business energy rates?+
Out-of-contract rates are the prices a business pays when no fixed-term contract is in place with its supplier. They can be materially higher than negotiated contract rates, so businesses should check their contract end date and renewal window before they expire.
