Valda Energy, a leading business energy supplier based in Bicester, has launched SmartChoice Zero Gas, the UK’s first business gas tariff with no standing charge.
SmartChoice Zero Gas which was launched on 26 March 2025, has been designed to make business energy billing easier for customers, with the cost of standing charge incorporated into the unit rate. The tariff is available for SME businesses across the UK who have an annual consumption of 5,000KWh or more.
David Soper, Commercial Director at Valda Energy said: “Business owners across the UK have long struggled with the complexities of energy billing, but our new SmartChoice Zero Gas tariff makes things simple.
“Standing charge costs play an important role within the industry, as they support the costs associated with maintaining Britain’s energy network and infrastructure. This new tariff ensures our customers continue to contribute to network maintenance while benefiting from simpler, easier-to-understand bills.
“Our customers are the heart of what we do at Valda Energy, and we’re delighted to be able to offer them a business energy solution that previously wasn’t available on the market.”
