We're a team of energy experts who search out the best utility contracts for our clients, no matter what
Together we're leading the charge in offering a personal bespoke service that sets us ahead of the rest, ensuring our customers benefit from spending the minimum amount of time and money managing their energy.
We started Clear Utility because our founders wanted to help frustrated business owners get the energy supplier and price they needed.
Founders Chris Draper and Ben Gunn
We promise never to hide behind jargon and always explain the important parts of our contracts.
We will always behave in a manner that's fair and right for all.
We promise to show the utmost respect to every person we deal with, without exception.
Why are we here?
Clear Utility was launched in 2018 by Chris and Ben who, after working for an energy supplier for many years, saw a gap in the market for an easy-to-use, genuinely impartial, and above all fast service to help frustrated business owners tired of constantly having to swap energy supplier and broker to get the service and price they needed.
​
Since then Clear Utility has gone from strength to strength and our commitment to service and value has enabled us to forge and develop long lasting relationships with suppliers and customers alike.
Our Customer Commitment
Our industry experience tells us our customers want honest, quick and fuss-free energy switching and that's exactly what we do.
Our attitude is that we work for our customers and our team is willing to earn every penny so to speak. Our energy expertise is always just a phone call or email away and we respond to every query, regardless.
​
Our simple service allows you to access a hand-picked panel of suppliers across multiple utilities to provide you with the best possible utility quotes based on your requirements.
​
We take a no pressure approach to what we do and we will never force you to change suppliers, we always speak to your current supplier and if we can get you a you a better deal with them, we will. Simple!
