There are three important news items about Big Switch and Save that we’d like to convey to West Norfolk residents, and we’d be grateful for the help of VCSE groups and organisations working in the area to help spread the word.
It’s the same scheme that’s been running successfully since 2012, but now is the time to emphasise that it’s very much about local people and community efforts in tackling fuel poverty and rising energy prices.

3: How Norfolk Energy Switch works
It’s like an auction in reverse. Instead of the consumer having to look for the best price, Norfolk Energy Switch collects together everybody who has registered on the scheme. The energy companies are then invited to compete between themselves to make the best possible tariff offers to those who’ve registered.
There are three energy saving auctions each year, and here’s why it makes sense to join in:
Why do people not do something that they know deep down might be the right thing for them? There are clear reasons for people’s hesitancy in switching energy supplier:
“Very easy to switch with this scheme. Would highly recommend it.”
“Thank you very much for this service. It has been a great help to our family’s finances.”
“It was much easier and simpler than I expected. I highly recommend it.”
"This scheme gave me the confidence to switch to a much more beneficial energy rate.”
“Super service. The transition was very smooth and fast. No hassle to swap. I’m very happy.”
Go to Norfolk Energy Switch and click on King's Lynn and West Norfolk to register your details. The next auction is on 19th February 2021, after which you receive your personalised offer, which you can think about, then accept or reject. There’s no obligation.
It’s the same principle with CAN’s well-established ThinkingFuel collective heating oil buying scheme – also trustworthy, reliable and proven over time. We provide low prices per litre on heating oil right through the year. For more information visit www.thinkingfuel.org.uk
