Utilita is an energy tech business and the UK’s only Smart Pay As You Go Energy specialist. We were the first supplier to embrace the benefits of smart meters for the consumer and have since added Utilita Mobile and Utilita Broadband to our smart portfolio.
Founded in 2003 as a kitchen table start-up by energy industry expert and conservationist Bill Bullen, we’re now one of the sector’s biggest challenger brands. Thanks to having better control, our customers use around 11% less energy than the average bill paying household.
Building on our track record of disruptive innovation, we continue to bring genuine change to retail energy - including a national rollout of our high street Energy Hubs, including stores in Southampton and Gosport.
We are committed to becoming a net zero business by 2030 and publish our carbon footprint report on a yearly basis, so progress can be tracked.
Utilita is also home to the #EnergyHigh5, a positive behaviour change campaign designed to educate the nation on how every household can waste less energy and save up to £332 on their annual energy spend.
