Nimble, Intelligent, Efficient, Risk Managed approach to your energy contracts!
At Direct Power we are committed to adding value to our customer’s energy contracting process. The energy market is much more complex than in previous years, and that requires a different approach. We think outside of the box! In addition to the traditional fixed style contracts, we also offer various flexible contracts which provide the consumer with a greater degree of risk management. The flexible contracts work well in both rising and falling markets. If your organisation consumes 0.5GWH (500,000kWh) or more, then you are in the fortunate position to qualify for a hands-off (we do the work for you), professionally risk managed, price optimisation flexible style contract. For organisations that consume more than 5GWh, we offer both a hands-off or a hands-on flexible solution.
Not sure what option is right for you? We work with you to decide which contract strategy is the best fit. A quick call with the Head Of Trading is all that is required for the larger consumers to determine the bespoke strategy.
Contract options for consumers above 0.5GWH (500,000kWh):
- Traditional Fixed, or Fixed at Forecast – very common, however not proactive. Less risk to end consumer drives up the cost.
- Basket Flexible Framework – join the basket and remove all purchase decisions from the process. The basket currently has 1.5TWh (1,500GWh) under management and is growing all the time. You don’t have to make any additional decisions, you piggy back off a significantly larger consumption for improved purchasing power, and from volume previously purchased on price dips.
Contract options for consumers above 5GWH (500,000,000kWh):

- Annual Block Purchase on a Flexible framework – Want your cake and eat it? This option is for you, as you can give instruction to purchase an annual block which gives you budget certainty for a year without the supplier risk premium that is added to a fixed style contract, thus would be far cheaper than a traditional fixed price contract. Commodity is purchased at screen price, not screen price plus suppliers risk premium as happens on a traditional fixed price contract.
- Non-annual Block Purchase on a Flexible framework – as above, but you could specify shorter or longer block durations, such as seasons, months etc.
- Bespoke Purchase on a Flexible framework – the strategy would be devised by the Head Of Trading according to your specific requirements, risk appetite / beudget certainty. We can put upper and lower ‘trigger’ points in so you feel comfortable.
