What is very important to know about switching energy suppliers is that energy market liberalization brought about increases in the prices provided by suppliers so far. Before the energy market liberalization, a part of the energy cost was covered from public funds, but this will cease gradually, and the final price will be determined by how competitive each supplier is.

In order to see if you can get a better price for your energy invoice, it would be wise to ask for quotes from the new energy suppliers appearing following the legislative changes. No matter of your choice, pay attention to other criteria except the price. Because, in the end, your communication with the energy supplier must be almost as important.
