Scottish and Southern Energy group (SSE)

The Scottish & Southern Energy Group (SSE) was formed in 1999 when Scottish Hydro-Electric and Southern Electric merged to create the new group.

Following the acquisition of Swalec in 2000 and Atlantic Electric & Gas in 2004, SSE has grown into one of the largest energy supply companies in the UK and now has over 8 million customers. They are the only company with a vast range of additional benefits available to customers at no extra charge including Airmiles and Argos points.

How can I compare SSE with other UK energy suppliers?

Most gas and electricity suppliers, including SSE, represent a good deal for certain households, according to how much gas or electricity you use and the region you live in.

The best way to find out if a supplier (including SSE) is going to suit your needs and save you money on your bills is to know your usage of energy. SimplySwitch has developed a free and impartial gas and electricity comparison calculator to help you find the best deal. Suppliers' rates and tariffs differ depending on the amount of energy you use and where you live. The calculator can estimate your usage based on the size of your property and other factors, but having a recent bill to hand is always a good idea as it will give us a much clearer picture of your gas and electricity usage.

I currently use SSE Dual Fuel to supply my energy – can I compare dual fuel tariffs with SimplySwitch?

Absolutely! – the SimplySwitch energy comparison calculator allows you to find the best tariff for you whether you currently receive your gas and electricity on an SSE Dual Fuel tariff or separately on different tariffs or energy suppliers.
