Collective purchasing offers individual businesses of any size the opportunity to combine their consumption and increase their purchasing power, giving two distinct benefits:
- The opportunity to benefit from flexible procurement
- Access to more competitive contracts

Flexible purchasing
Flexible contracts are usually only available to businesses with large energy volumes. They involve ENER-G analysts purchasing your energy flexibly on the wholesale market: buying chunks of consumption over a period of time to take advantage of market dips and avoid costly price spikes.
What about fixed price contracts?
Traditional fixed price contracts offer the advantage of budget certainty, however the buyer has to lock into a market price at a single point in time, when prices might be high.
By purchasing flexibly rather than buying at a fixed rate, customers can buy ‘little and often’ to spread the purchasing risk.
