Details

These documents are for energy suppliers and scheme administrators. There is different guidance for consumers.

The documents are the agreements between the government, energy suppliers, and scheme administrators that enable the delivery of the Energy Price Guarantee to households across the UK. We intend for these documents to be formally recognised by Parliament through regulations to be laid under the Energy Prices Act.
