A buying group is when a collective of organisations group together to purchase their energy. Organisations that combine their purchasing power with others in this way usually achieve lower prices, because suppliers are competing for the overall business of the group’s collective energy consumption.
Our Buying Group is designed to help participants achieve the best available energy tariff while benefiting from fully fixed and inclusive prices for a two-year contract.
We will only place you in contracts that we believe are in your favour. Therefore, if the price isn’t advantageous on the day, we will make a recommendation for an alternative price where possible, or we’ll advise you to wait to secure your next contract.
Due to the current volume of pricing, as a result of the recent market volatility, suppliers are likely to offer a more favourable rate to Buying Groups to secure a large collective energy supply ahead of competing suppliers.
The Buying Group Basket will be submitted for tender at a time when markets are traditionally low, securing a fixed rate for the collective energy supply based on expert analysis and forecasting.

Any organisation wishing to take part in the Buying Group will need to return their LoA by an agreed cut-off date. Due to the large number of people involved in the purchasing process, we ask participants to allow us to sign the contract on their behalf, under certain conditions. But we will never sign a customer into any contract that falls outside of the agreed parameters without your consent. We communicate the timescales of the process very clearly. Participants will be notified of the pricing closing date 14 days before, along with an update on the final numbers involved.
During the week of the group purchase we will compare the prices received and sign off on the best price available to you, within the agreed parameters. If the prices returned fall outside of these parameters, a Zenergi Relationship Manager will be in touch to discuss your options.
Once your contract is secured you will receive a welcome pack and a copy of your contract within 7 working days.
