Green Energy UK reduce electricity prices

Green Energy UK has today announced a price reduction in its two tariffs Green Energy +10 and Green Energy 100.

green energy +10

green energy 100
green energy 100 is 100% pure green electricity - available at a small premium over your regional electricity supplier.
