There are always little tips for saving energy in your own home. Sometimes reducing your energy consumption is one, and changing your electricity supplier can be another.

Who are the electricity suppliers?

According to papernest, the most important thing to choose the good electricity supplier is to assess its consumption. Once this is done, it will be easier to determine which supplier to choose, depending on the offers and the price per kWh.

For consumption, simulations exist online. They are done in just a few clicks.

Among them we count:

  • Engie
  • Total Direct Energy
  • Planet Yes
  • Eni
  • Vattenfall

And even more.

Whether you are looking to move or simply change supplier, simulation remains an essential step when opening an electricity meter.

There are many providers in the market today.

If you choose the historical supplier of France, there are things to know for take out an EDF contract.

This is done in several steps.

Once you have performed a consumption simulation, you can subscribe to the EDF offer that suits you.

According to papernest, if the supporting documents requested by EDF may seem very personal, such as your full address or your bank account statement, this is completely normal and you do not have to worry about it.
