Smart Battery Tariff for UK Businesses
Combine a capped flexible commercial tariff with intelligent battery control to reduce costly consumption periods and make business energy work harder.
A flexible commercial tariff with a price cap
Most commercial fixed contracts use simple day and night rates. Q Energy’s Smart Battery Tariff offers a more flexible route with a price cap, bringing a principle similar to flexible domestic tariffs into a commercial setting.
The tariff is combined with intelligent battery control so electricity can be bought, stored and used at more valuable times. The final structure depends on the business profile, contract timing and agreed commercial terms.
How intelligent battery control supports savings
Q Energy’s platform uses consumption data, forecasts and market conditions to determine when the battery should charge or discharge. This can reduce exposure to expensive peaks and improve the value of stored grid or solar energy.
- Charge at lower-cost times
- Use stored energy during costly periods
- Capture surplus on-site solar where available
- Coordinate eligible flexibility and grid-service activity
Published commercial savings benchmarks
Q Energy’s supplied materials state a guaranteed benchmark of 0.5p–2p per kWh and potential overall commercial energy-bill savings of 10–25%. The guaranteed figure for an individual business can only be confirmed after its bills, half-hourly data, tariff, assets and site requirements have been assessed and written into the agreed contract.
Phoenix’s calculator uses the published 0.5p–2p per kWh benchmark so a business can estimate an initial annual range from monthly or yearly consumption without presenting the wider potential savings as guaranteed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Phoenix Energy Partners supports commercial organisations across the UK, from an initial bill review through to specialist assessment with PAS and Q Energy.
Is the Smart Battery Tariff the same as a standard fixed tariff?
No. It is a flexible commercial route with a price cap, combined with intelligent battery control. The exact tariff and contractual structure are confirmed after assessment.
Are the savings guaranteed?
Q Energy’s published benchmark is 0.5p–2p per kWh. The exact guaranteed saving for a business must be confirmed from its data and set out in the agreed proposal and contract. Potential wider savings should not be treated as guaranteed.
Can we enquire before our current contract ends?
Yes. Businesses can start an initial review while an existing contract is running. Contract end dates and notice requirements will form part of the commercial assessment.
Can the tariff cover several sites?
A multi-site portfolio can be reviewed together, including locations with different usage levels. The commercial and technical suitability of each site will still need to be assessed.
