From our experience, one in four energy bills contain errors, which can result in unwanted costs for your business.

Business energy bills are complex by nature, with a growing range of non-commodity charges, such as green taxes, in addition to various contract types, charging methods and standing charges. Also, different suppliers use different formats to present their bills, making them difficult to compare.

There are numerous reasons why your bills could be calculated in error, and the harsh reality is that these errors rarely work in favour of the bill payer. From our experience, frequent examples include third party charges, errors in details of supply contract, incorrectly applied consumption data & meter reads, or account balances not aligning with previous invoices.



While technology now allows for a wide range of data available for your overall energy usage, as well as control & understanding, it makes overseeing your billing and usage a monotonous & time-consuming task. This is where an external invoice validation team can be particularly beneficial, with an experience specialist(s), who would likely pay for themselves with the errors & refunds they uncover. Not only could this be applied to energy invoices, but also open the door to a range of energy consumption & carbon reduction pathways.
