What you need to know
Important information
Already with SSE, SSE Southern Electric, SSE SWALEC or SSE Scottish Hydro?
If you switch to a new tariff on this website, you'll stay with your current SSE brand. We may review your Direct Debit to make sure your payments cover your usage and any debit balance you might have. If we need to change the amount you pay, we'll write to you confirming the new amount.
Green Deal
If you have a Green Deal scheme in place for your home, Green Deal charges will also apply. The estimates included in this application do not include Green Deal charges. We will write to you separately to confirm if a Green Deal charge applies.
What you need to know before you apply
We’ll send your Welcome pack by email. This includes your confirmation of contract, tariff information, terms and conditions and cancellation form.
If we're taking over the supply of energy from another supplier, you agree to your current supplier transferring the right for us to collect any debt you owe them (in the event we're obliged to).
Smart meters
You can have a smart meter installed in your property, if you’re eligible and don’t already have one. We’ll contact you to arrange a suitable installation date.
We rely on a mobile phone or wireless signal to get your smart meter readings. If these fail, you’ll either need to take your own reading and send it to us, or your bills will be estimated.
Direct Debit discount
Paying by Direct Debit is our default payment method. If you choose a different payment method your prices may be higher.

Switching FAQs
Should I let my current supplier know I’m switching?
Once you sign up, we’ll take care of everything including telling your current energy provider that you want to switch to us.
How long will my switch take?
We’re signed up to the Energy Switch Guarantee, which means switching your gas and/or electricity will take no longer than 21 days.
What happens when I switch?
After you sign up, we’ll send your paperwork by email. Once your 14-day cooling off period has finished, we’ll ask your current energy supplier for your supply and begin your switch. Just before the switch is complete, we’ll ask you for your meter reading(s) and give these to your old supplier so they close your account on the same readings.
What is a fixed-price tariff?
With a fixed-price tariff your unit rate per kWh energy prices will stay the same over the period of your contract.
What does 'early exit fee' mean?
Some of our energy plans have ‘early exit fees’. We'll charge you a certain amount if you switch to a different energy supplier or tariff before the end of your contract. These fees are 'per fuel', which means there's one for gas and one for electricity. If you have both fuels (dual fuel) with us, we'll charge for both. All our exit fees are clearly stated.
Who are SSE?
The SSE brand started back in 1998 when Scottish Hydro Electric merged with Southern Electric to become Scottish and Southern Energy. Later we incorporated SWALEC and Atlantic into the growing SSE brand. You may even be familiar with some of these local brands – SSE Southern Electric, SSE Scottish Hydro and SSE SWALEC.
SSE’s GB domestic retail business (which provides energy and related services to households throughout Great Britain) left the SSE Group in January 2020 to become part of the OVO family.
You can read more about us, but no matter what our name is, our primary aim is to provide great service for all our customers.
