Who Is the Cheapest Electricity Provider in Ireland?
Energia offers several advantages to residential and commercial customers in Ireland. The company delivers 100% renewable energy, with a significant portfolio of wind farms contributing 21% of Ireland's wind-generated power. Customers benefit from competitive pricing, attractive discounts—especially for new joiners—and a wide range of tariffs, including tailored plans for electric vehicle users and solar microgenerators, alongside support for renewable integration through feed-in tariffs and home installation services.
However, there are some drawbacks associated with Energia's service. Like many large energy providers, they are often criticised for customer support issues, such as long waiting times, and customers have also highlighted problems with billing. Energia can also be perceived as expensive due to the generally high cost of electricity in Ireland, even though they offer various discounts and promotions.
Flogas offers a broad range of energy solutions in Ireland, covering natural gas, LPG, and electricity, with special expertise in LPG for areas not connected to the gas grid. The supplier also provides 100% green electricity tariffs, supports renewable energy adoption through solar panel installations and feed-in tariffs, and participates in various energy efficiency schemes. Customers can benefit from sign-up incentives, occasional partner offers, and an 18.5c/kWh export rate for microgeneration, making Flogas a potentially attractive option for those seeking a single provider for multiple energy needs.
Nevertheless, Flogas’s strengths are balanced by some notable drawbacks. As a company primarily known for gas and LPG, its electricity services may lack the depth and experience of larger electricity-focused suppliers, and its portfolio is still heavily reliant on fossil fuels, which may not meet the green expectations of all customers. Customer service experiences appear to vary, and while there has been a notable reduction in complaints, some reviews mention issues with response times and problem resolution, and standard rates may not always be the lowest on the market.
