Our fuel mix

Where does our energy come from?

At Bristol Energy we offer the greenest electricity we can, at the best price we can. And we're helping Bristol to tackle social and environmental challenges such as fuel poverty and climate change – so you can go green, and give back.

Overall, our fuel mix for the period between April 2019 and March 2020 was 100% green.

The UK average is 37.9%, so we’re pretty proud of this. Despite being just over four years old, we’re already well above the national average. And we’ll stay green as we grow.

Want to go even greener?

Switching your energy supplier to one which provides renewable energy is one of the easiest ways to tackle climate change.

We are committed to only offering green tariffs which benefit the environment and our communities. All of our tariffs deliver 100% renewable electricity from UK only sources.

Carbon Dioxide Emissions

Bristol Energy - 0 g/kWh

National Grid Average – 198 g/kWh

Radioactive waste?

Because 100% of our electricity comes from UK-based renewable sources, we don’t need to buy power from the National Grid, which means the amount of radioactive waste we produce has comes down to 0% too.
