Fixed price - security and predictability for your company

The fixed-price procurement of electricity or gas is a contract between a consumer (company) and an energy supplier in which the electricity or gas price (= more precisely the "pure energy price") is agreed for a certain period of time. Under this contract, the electricity is supplied at a previously agreed fixed price per kilowatt hour (kWh), irrespective of market fluctuations or price increases during the term of the contract.

Best time to buy

Fixing a fixed price for energy

With fixed-price procurement, you secure a fixed energy price - based on the current exchange price for electricity or gas - for an entire delivery year. Purchases are usually made in advance; for example, in 2025 you purchase your energy requirements for 2026. Depending on your requirements, shorter periods (e.g. every six months) or fixed prices for several supply years are also possible. Fixed-price contracts for electricity usually have a term of one to three years, but can be agreed individually with the supplier. Your energy price remains constant throughout the term of the contract - regardless of market fluctuations or external influences.

Transparent cost overview for fixed-price contracts

Fixed-price contracts generally only cover the pure energy price and the energy supplier's delivery surcharge. Other costs such as grid utilisation fees, taxes, levies and charges are calculated separately and are standardised for all market participants. Our energy platform provides you with a transparent breakdown of all cost components. You can use practical filter functions to show or hide individual items at any time. In addition, all energy consumption data, costs and contracts can be conveniently downloaded as a report at the click of a mouse.

Former Head of Purchasing, Fränkische Rohrwerke

Challenge

"Gas was negotiated directly with the individual energy suppliers. The load profiles, consumption points and consumption quantities were sent to different suppliers and final negotiations were carried out based on the results. That took about four weeks," says Holger Leschinski. The electricity purchase was similar: "In preparation, a few energy suppliers were asked for an offer and the different energy prices were painstakingly evaluated and compared. The effort was more manageable, but it also took two weeks," adds the energy buyer. He wished for faster processes and greater competition among the suppliers, because: The prices for electricity and gas are traded daily on the stock exchange. The longer the commitment periods, the fewer favourable market opportunities can be seized.

Solution

FRÄNKISCHE has been an enPORTAL customer since February 2016. Since all energy data is stored in the cloud, the purchasing manager can contact up to 620 suppliers at short notice via the online portal when market conditions are good. 24 hours later, the offers are available, which are clearly displayed in the automatically generated bidder comparison list. It can be seen at a glance which supplier offers the best energy price. After a two-hour binding period, the contract can be concluded. "It's easy to get an overview of the offers and the price difference is shown to me immediately. From our side, there is little effort behind it and it goes quickly," says Holger Leschinski.
