Cheapest Dual Fuel Deal in Ireland

Who Has the Cheapest Deal For Switching Gas and Electricity?

Most of the energy suppliers in Ireland offer dual fuel bundle deals for new customers such as reduced tariffs or cashback. Even if you have previously switched energy supplier, but have been with your current energy supplier for more than a year, you could still save money by switching again.

Note: when we compared the cheapest one-year contract on dual fuel deals from each provider, we based it on what might be typical usage in a medium-sized house, using gas for both heating and hot water. ( 11000 Kwh of  Gas and 4200 kWh of electricity a year .)
The prices shown below include any cashback offers and show the total charges in the first year. Any upcoming price decreases are included,

Switch and Save

You should try and treat electricity and gas supply like car insurance:- shop around every year and get a better deal. It only takes a few minutes to fill out a form and it could save you a few hundred euros each year.

The main message is ….  if you have never switched and are still on the standard rates from Electric Ireland or Bord Gais Energy  – then switching to the Cheapest Dual Fuel Bundle can save you significant amounts of money.

Even if you have switched previously – if you have been with your current supplier for more than a year you will get cheaper offers by switching again.

Switching energy supplier does not involve any wiring changes, pipe changes or disconnections. It just means that a different company is administering your bills. It is still the same electricity and gas coming into your house.

Prices were calculated to the nearest euro  March 11th  using published tariffs and standing charges on suppliers’ websites and including VAT, the PSO Levy on Electricity and Carbon Tax on Gas. Cashback offers included in calculations.

The prices given are for new customers only, paying by direct debit and e-bills.
Upcoming price increases are included in the calculations.
