Energia is among the biggest suppliers of electricity and gas tariffs in the whole of Ireland, and is currently the largest supplier of green electricity. Energia Ireland was established in 1999. It began operating in the electricity market in the Republic in 2000, initially catering to just business customers.

Energia then entered the Irish gas market in 2009 after deregulation. In 2014, it began supplying residential customers and currently supplies 100% renewably sourced electricity. Energia currently has 85,000 business customers and over 755,000 residential customers. It is the fourth-largest residential gas and electricity supplier in Ireland, after Electric Ireland, Bord Gáis Energy, and SSE Airtricity.

When Is the Next Energia Price Decrease?

In September 2023, Energia announced that they would be reducing their electricity and smart tariff prices by up to 20%. This is the first major price decrease by a larger supplier and has also led to several other suppliers doing the same. The price decrease will be effective from the 3rd October 2023. Here’s what customers can expect in terms of rates:

Meter Type Current Rates Rates from 3rd October 2023
24 Hour 48.44c 41.17c
Day Rate 53.08c 45.13c
Night Rate 25.46c 21.65c
Night Storage 24.93c 21.37c
Gas 14.81c 11.85c

Like many providers in Ireland, Energia announced its first price increase of 2022 on April 25th. The latest price increase was announced in August 2022 that took effect from 1 October 2022 and increased electricity prices by 29% and gas prices by 39%. Energia was among the first to announce this latest round of price hikes but it has been moderately reasonable compared to others. This comes after the provider imposed three price increases in 2021 alone. The last Energia price increase added an additional 18% to their electricity prices and 19% more to their gas prices.

Does Energia Have Pay As You Go?

The provider currently does not provide Pay As You Go (PAYG) services to the general public. The supplier only provides prepayment plans to customers who need help managing their debts or to customers that are experiencing financial hardship (proof required). If you fit one of these categories and you’d like to learn more, contact Energia to find out if you can get a PAYG offer.

What the Other Energia Products and Services?

thumbs up

Energia also has a range of other products and services that it offers. These usually include items from the Eneria Smart Home Store that has a list of different services that you can contract for your home. Energia also has a lot of online support including the Energia login account and Energy FastPay.

Is There an Energia Boiler Service?

For peace of mind and sheer practicality, arranging your Energia boiler service could also be a handy option. Your boiler must be serviced at least once a year to keep it in tip-top condition.

Not servicing your boiler might lead to the following problems:

  1. Dangerous faults
  2. Affect its efficiency
  3. Accumulation of sludge and dirt

A well-maintained boiler is a more efficient boiler, and a more efficient boiler means more money in your pocket and less on your bill.

The Energia boiler service is priced at €115 and is, of course, carried out by an RGII registered gas installer. You can book your 28-point boiler service using the online enquiry form to arrange a callback, or by calling 1818 111 122.

Are There Energia Solar Panels?

Energia offers to install flat solar panels on your roof for your hot water needs. The normal solar panel package costs €6,149 but Energia customers can get it for €4,650 (including discounts and solar panel grants). In order to get them installed, you'll need to register with Energia's Cosy Home Scheme and they will send a certified engineer to assess your property and help you with all the solar panel components.

Have a look at our guide on solar panels as well as on solar batteries, and decide whether this would be a worthwhile investment or not - you'll also need to consider how long the warranty lasts and the cost of replacing any fuel cells or batteries, not just how it helps the environment.

What Is Energia FastPay?

Energia FastPay is an interesting feature which allows customers to do the following:

  • Make a partial payment towards your next energy bill.
  • Make a total payment for your next invoice.
  • In turn, this allows customers to build up credit and avoid a large bill at one time, especially in the winter months.

For customers who pay via direct debit, it's important to note that you can only make an advance payment with Energia FastPay. You cannot use the service to pay a bill that has already been issued.

pros cons

Just off the phone from Energia Customer Service to close my Father Accounts after his passing. The Chap on the phone was so professional and courteous. Starting the call with his condolence on my loss and finishing with his condolence again. Everything was handled quickly with no fuss. Highly Recommended.

David Ryan on Trustpilot, 10/03/2023

How Are the Energia Reviews on Google?

On Google, customers have marked the company with an average rating of 4.3 out of 5 stars. This is from over 488 reviews. This is a much smaller sample of opinions compared to the Trustpilot website. The results do align and would indicate that the company does provide quality service.

I spoke with Tony while looking to switch energy providers and he was brilliant! He made the process very easy and and communicated in a very clear and professional manner. He confirmed all my information thoroughly and asked any questions I had about the service. Would recommend Energia and their exceptional support staff!
