SSE is a familiar name to many, bringing green energy matched by renewable sources. And with millions of customers all over the country, the brand is trusted by many. Once you find out how much you can save by switching supplier, you’ll find that you want to keep switching again and again. But in an era where smaller energy suppliers are frequently going out of business or being absorbed by the larger players in the industry, it’s understandable that many energy consumers prefer a well-known brand.
Last update: November 2022
And as one of the UK’s "Big 6" energy suppliers, SSE is one of the biggest out there. Especially now that it has become part of the OVO energy group.
