Until 2010 the UK’s Big Six energy suppliers controlled 100% of the energy market - in just under a decade smaller suppliers have reduced this to 73%.
The balance of power is shifting in the UK energy sector. According to Ofgem, 2019 has seen record levels of switching as the demand for green energy surges; in 2018 the capacity of renewable energy overtook fossil fuels for the first time. Price caps and smart meters have dominated the discourse within the UK energy industry, while at the same time global movements like Extinction Rebellion and Youth Strike 4 Climate vie for more drastic action from governments to prevent irreversible climate change.
To this backdrop of shifting market conditions, growing competition, and innovation, Pearlfinders has produced a briefing that profiles the key players in the energy sector specifically for sales and new business teams looking to pitch marketing solutions, partnerships and sponsorship opportunties.
