Fuel, energy and electricity contracts expiring in the UK: 144 worth £2.8bn

What this market looks like
144 fuel, energy and electricity contracts across the UK carry a published end date, worth £2.8bn between them. They are held across 103 buyers, and the typical one is worth £478k.
65 of them expire within twelve months, and 30 are already inside the window where the buyer would normally be shaping the replacement. That is 45% of this market back in play inside a year.
158 different suppliers hold the work, and the three largest hold 10% of it. That is a fragmented market, which usually means no single relationship is decisive and a smaller supplier can win on merit.
11 are frameworks rather than a single contract, so part of this market is reached by getting onto a supplier list first and competing for call-offs afterwards.
The most active buyers are NORTHERN IRELAND WATER LIMITED (5), Leicestershire County Council, trading as ESPO (4), Peterborough City Council (3).
The contracts here are most often held by SSE Energy Supply Limited (9), SEFE ENERGY LIMITED (6), EDF ENERGY CUSTOMERS LIMITED (5).
