The retailer
Who is ENGIE?
ENGIE, formerly Simply Energy, supplies electricity and gas to small businesses and to large commercial and industrial sites, with carbon-neutral options and a self-serve online portal. Like every retailer, ENGIE offers a range of business plans, and the rate you start on is not always the rate you stay on.
Termina takes no commission from any retailer. How Termina works.
Before you switch
What should you check on an ENGIE business bill?
Six things, whichever retailer you are with. Contract renewals are when rates most often rise.
01
Whether your rate changed
Compare the rate on your latest bill with the rate you signed. Many plans move to a higher rate when the contract period ends.
02
Network and demand charges
These can be a large share of the bill. On a demand tariff, compare the full cost including the demand charge, not just the usage rate.
03
Your contract end date
And any exit fee. That decides when moving is cheap and what leaving costs.
04
Discounts on part of the bill
A discount that applies only to usage charges is worth less than it looks.
05
The right tariff for each site
Single rate, time of use or demand. The cheapest plan on one tariff can be the dearest on another.
06
Commission inside your rate
If a broker set up the plan, their commission is often built into your unit rate rather than shown on the bill.
Your options
Should you go direct to ENGIE, use a broker, or use Termina?
Three ways to buy business energy. The difference is who pays the adviser, how much of the market you see, and who does the work.
| Termina | A commission-paid broker | Going direct to the retailer | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who pays them | You. On small business plans, a share of the savings found, and nothing if there are none. For large-market sites: No fee to run the tender. Once you switch, 1% of your bill (capped at $80 a month) plus 10% of what we save you. | The retailer, as a commission, usually inside your rate | No one; you deal with the retailer |
| Which offers you see | The whole market, including retailers that pay brokers nothing | The retailers on their panel | The retailer’s own offers |
| When your rate is re-checked | Every month on small business plans; at every renewal for large-market sites, tendered to 37+ retailers | Usually at contract renewal | When you check it |
| Who does the switch | Termina, once you approve | The broker | You |
Questions
What do businesses ask about ENGIE bills?
Is ENGIE good for business energy?
It depends on your rate, not the retailer. ENGIE suits some sites and not others, and the only way to know is to compare your bill, including network and demand charges, with the whole market.
Can I leave ENGIE before my contract ends?
Variable plans can usually be left at any time. Fixed-term contracts can carry exit fees, so we check your contract end date and any exit fee before recommending a move.
Does Termina get paid by ENGIE?
No. We refuse retailer commissions. Our only income is a share of the savings we find, and every rate we quote is already after our share.
How much does Termina charge?
$0 to join. On small business plans, the only way we get paid is a share of what we save you, split 50/50. No saving, no fee. Our fee sits inside your rates. For large-market sites: No fee to run the tender. Once you switch, 1% of your bill (capped at $80 a month) plus 10% of what we save you.
What do I need to compare my ENGIE bill?
Your latest ENGIE bill, as the PDF from the retailer. A photo won’t do, because we read every line of it.
What if you can’t find a better rate than ENGIE?
On small business plans, you stay where you are and pay nothing. On small business plans in Australia: if no better rate is found in 12 months, you get $100 off your next bill.
