I am writing to you today to advise you of an opportunity CSCBG supplier Utility Aid would like to offer CSCBG members.

Utility Aid is the UK's largest energy broker for the not-for-profit sector working with over 2,000 organisations and counting. Their dedicated team provide a high-level service to manage and maintain your utility portfolio. They understand that rising energy costs are a concern for most organisations right now and want to offer their advice and guidance through a collective purchasing offer.

Utility Aid manages energy 'baskets' containing thousands of properties across the UK. By grouping the energy consumption together, the basket participants benefit from considerable purchasing power. You have the opportunity to align your energy contracts to the next relevant date and basket in relation to your purchasing strategy and appetite for risk.  

This is a strategic approach to tackle the current energy crisis. Short-term prices will be sky-high at the moment, so it will be more beneficial to spread the costs over a longer term now with the opportunity to automatically receive quotes from the National Charity Tender in the future.

Why is purchasing this way beneficial?

Utility Aid’s current basket has a purchasing power of over 100 million kwhs which could approximately power 6,665 homes or the city of Chichester for a year! Utility Aid have partnered with SSE for this year’s tender. This is because of SSE’s continued support of charities and NFP organisations throughout the pandemic and subsequent energy crisis. SSE have a very strong financial standing and are one of the only suppliers to be able to offer a completely Protected price throughout the duration of your contract. The electricity prices are 100% renewable and you have the option to apply the uplift for green gas should you need to. There is also an option to upgrade to REGO certificated electricity.

Included in this offer:

•            Validation of all invoices ensuring you are not over or underpaying.

•             Dealing with all supplier queries.

•             Provision of CRC data

•             Provision of ongoing market intelligence

•             Full access to your dedicated Account Manager

•             Assistance with additions and deletions to contract

•             VAT and CCL assistance

•             SMART installation assistance

•             Meter installs/removals

If you would like to advantage of this offer, please respond by e-mail to buy@cscbg.org.uk  

Please put Yes NCT in the subject line of the e-mail and include your name and contact details, i.e.  e-mail address and telephone numbers and organisation name in the body of the e-mail.

You will then be contacted by one of the Utility Aid team.
