Compare SSE - OVO tariffs

Now part of the OVO group, SSE provides gas and electricity to millions of homes across the UK.

As of October 2023, all existing SSE customers will now be moved onto OVO tariffs and the SSE brand will be retired.

Here’s everything you need to know, including what it has to offer and how its tariffs compare to other energy providers… 

Cheap SSE - OVO tariffs

OVO - SSE prices are generally in-line with the other household-name energy providers. That said, you’ll likely find cheaper deals elsewhere – especially from less well known suppliers such as Octopus Energy and Bulb. 

You can choose from dual fuel, gas-only and electricity-only tariffs. To keep your outgoings as low as possible, look out for online exclusive offers from SSE - OVO, or opt for one of its dual-fuel energy deals.  

You see, dual-fuel tariffs are often cheaper than going for a gas or electricity-only plan, and it’s always more convenient having just one bill to pay at the end of the month.

SSE Energy - OVO fixed price deals

A fixed-price energy tariff means the price you pay per unit of gas and electricity will remain the same for the length of your contract.  

It’s important to remember, however, this doesn’t mean your bill will be the same each month – the size of the bill will depend on how much energy you actually use. 

SSE Energy - OVO tariffs for existing customers

If you’re an existing SSE, SSE Southern Electric, SSE Swalec or SSE Scottish Hydro customer, you can change to an OVO tariff.

What happens if my energy supplier goes bust?

It is very rare for an energy supplier to go out of business, but it happened in 2016, with the collapse of GB Energy.

As happened then, any future collapse and its consequences would be managed by Ofgem, the energy market regulator. Thanks to Ofgem’s safety net, even if your supplier goes out of business, your gas and/or electricity supply will never be cut off or interrupted.

All UK energy suppliers are regulated by Ofgem.

In addition to guaranteeing continuity of supply, Ofgem works to move customers of a failed company to the best possible deal, with any debit/credit transferred to a new supplier that is chosen to inherit the business.
