Scottish Power Electricity & Gas Tariffs
Scottish Power tariffs are very straight-forward.
See the list below and then compare and switch your energy to see
if ScottishPower could be cheaper for you.
The tariff options are as follows:
-
Standard/variable/ default tariff – If you haven’t agreed to a
contract (if you have just moved house for example) or your
previous deal has expired, you’ll be on this tariff. The costs
change depending on wholesale, distribution and taxation costs.
There are more cost-effective tariffs available if you compare
and switch your energy through a price comparison service like
Switch Squid. You will also be affected by the OFGEM Energy
Price Cap. See our guide for more information on the Energy
Price Cap.

Scottish Power: Green energy
ScottishPower state that all their domestic green tariffs are
backed by 100% green electricity generated by their UK-based wind
farms.
They also state that they are the only supplier that backs their
green energy tariffs with 100% green energy that they generate
themselves and claims that other suppliers that state the same
aren’t entirely ‘Green’.
This is a practice known as ‘Greenwashing’.
You can learn more about Greenwashing in our guide here.
Their investment into sustainability is enormous with the
equivalent of £6m a day invested into reaching Net-Zero by 2050.
