Index Priced Strategies for Electricity

Our Index Priced (market-based) Product provides your electricity supply at a competitive rate/kWh that is linked to a transparent, published wholesale market index. We'll work with you to analyze your electricity usage profile and devise an index priced plan that shifts into a fixed price plan once the market reaches the agreed-upon price or terms.

With the Index Priced Product, you can avoid the risks of locking in at a high price while gaining the flexibility to ride the wholesale market in pursuit of competitive pricing and advantageous buys. This flexibility makes a market-based strategy the ideal choice for businesses with a higher risk appetite or the ability to control consumption when pricing peaks.

Our contracts are typically available in terms of up to 36 months. However, the terms and conditions of contracts may vary based on regional legislation and your individual load profile.

Is the Index Priced Product right for your business?

• We're willing to ride the market for the short term in anticipation of a market dip, when we can lock in a more competitive rate.
• We have a substantial level of flexibility in our month-to-month budget.
• We have a higher tolerance for the risk of market fluctuations or price spikes.
• We can control our consumption patterns to avoid high usage during price peaks.
