Understanding The UK Wholesale Energy Market

02.25.2021 21:40 PM

This market is where generators of energy and suppliers trade with one another. The energy suppliers buy from the generators at wholesale prices and then add their own mark up and sell it on to customers at what is a higher price. But because the market for energy is so volatile, with prices constantly fluctuating, energy suppliers need to regularly change the tariffs that they offer to customers to reflect the changing wholesale prices.
