A new strategic partnership between Ebico and Rebel Energy strives to make sustainable home warmth cheaper for all.

Ebico, the UK’s first not-for-profit energy company, will retail its energy plans through its domestic energy retail brand Ebico Living, while the rapidly growing energy supply pioneer, Rebel Energy, will supply energy to Ebico Living’s customers.

 Standing charges weigh heavily on many household budgets, with some customers on Price Capped Standard Variable tariffs paying as much as £375* per year without even using any energy.  But with the launch of this partnership, an energy deal that slashes the cost of standing charges become available. 

Ebico’s new Signature energy plan offers an average standing charge of only £147** for a dual fuel customer, a saving of £228 and the lowest standing charge for fixed rate home energy available standalone through both smart and conventional meters.

Combined with its competitive unit rates for electricity and gas, the Ebico Signature energy plan represents a breakthrough deal for home energy customers throughout Britain.

 Ebico CEO, Phil Levermore, commented: “We are absolutely delighted to be able to announce this partnership with Rebel Energy.  Together, we are embarking on a journey with joint objectives, combining our strengths to offer our customers great energy deals that also support the wider affordability of sustainable living. 

Rebel Energy shares our focus on the twin imperatives of home energy decarbonisation and affordability and together we are determined that the interests of low-income households should not be forgotten in Britain’s vital transition to Net Zero.”

 He continued: “We’re proud that, through our partnership with Rebel Energy, we can offer ‘Ebico Signature’, our first new energy deal in three years.  Ebico Signature enables us to offer savings to smaller households. 

With lower heating requirements, such households can find standing charges a disproportionate financial burden.  Ebico Signature offers huge savings on standing charges – great news for all householders, but particularly for those with lower energy use.”

 Dan Bates, CEO of Rebel Energy commented:”At Rebel Energy, we are excited to partner with Ebico Living to bring about a significant change in the home energy market. This collaboration aligns with our mission to end fuel poverty in the UK.

By offering the lowest fixed rate standing charges available, we are helping to ease the financial burden on households and promoting a fairer energy market. Together with Ebico, we are committed to delivering innovative solutions that benefit our customers and the environment.”
