Change of Tenancy and LoCO2 Energy

Moving into or out of a premise is known as a Change of Tenancy in the business energy market. The existing supplier to the premise is obliged to continue to provide energy to the premise and under no circumstances will this be otherwise the case, however it is an obligation on the new tenant to agree a new contract either with that supplier or with a new supplier of your choice. Moving in to a premise supplied by LoCO2 Energy If your business takes occupation of a site currently supplied by LoCO2 Energy you need to inform them as quickly as possible that you are the new tenant. This is critical for two reasons: 1) to prevent your business being held liable for charges incurred by the previous tenant 2) to ensure you can negotiate a competitive rate (and choose to switch if you desire) A Change of Tenancy customer has total freedom of movement and is free to accept a contract with a supplier of their choice. This is good news, however many unscrupulous sales businesses prey on new movers and force them into uncompetitive and unsuitable contracts. To find out more visit our Guide to Scams. It doesn’t have to be this way.

By providing this information together with the LoCO2 Energy Incoming Change of Tenancy Letter you can secure your business the opportunity to strike a great energy deal for your needs. Moving out of a premise supplied by LoCO2 Energy If your business is leaving a premise for which you currently have a LoCO2 Energy contract, you need to inform them as quickly as possible that you are no longer the tenant.
