Energy bills have become a concern for families. Gas and electricity are already a heavy burden on the household balance. According to the consumers’ association Facua (Consumers in action) the Spanish pay a higher bill than the rest of the EU neighbours, being already the third most expensive in Europe.
For this reason, home improvements to save energy are important, as is choosing the most convenient rate for electricity and gas, since, depending on the company you choose for your electricity, you can save up to 200 euros a year. However, this does not concern the rights to activate the supply, as they are stipulated by the State, through the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Tourism.
To change the rate, just call the customer service of Iberdrola, Holaluz, Repsol or any other company.
