We can confirm that the sale of our business to British Gas has now completed. British Gas will start writing to customers from week commencing 21st September inviting them to move across.
We will be here to continue supporting our customers and to make that journey as seamless as possible.
Robin Hood Energy is the first not-for-profit energy company, owned by a local authority. We were set up to tackle fuel poverty and to help give people a cheaper, more helpful alternative energy supplier.
Launched by Nottingham City Council, we’re proud to be leading the way in trying to reduce fuel poverty for those who need help the most.
We’re a not-for-profit company, so we can keep our prices low and competitive. We don’t have private shareholders watching our every move or big bonuses for our company directors. Instead, we have one simple aim – to bring you cheaper gas and electricity.
For years, energy costs have been rising. Many of us have felt mistrustful of the big energy providers and frustrated with the lack of service. Worse still, energy poverty has increased with more and more households struggling to afford to keep their homes warm and dry. That’s where we come in.
We strongly believe that energy is a human necessity, not a luxury and don’t agree with bonuses being paid and prices hiked.
As we were launched by Nottingham City Council, we’ve always pledged to invest in our community and good causes. We’ve worked with local food banks, schools, charities, and businesses.
Our community work
As a business:
To preserve our environment for generations to come, as a business we made the conscious decision early on to make all the electricity in our tariffs 100% green and absorbed this cost without passing it onto our customers in the form of higher tariffs.
Last July we converted all our customers to 100% green energy and by doing this, we’ve eliminated 128,000 tons of C02 from our energy generation process.
