Lava Energy - Business Utility Comparison

Our Story

From small beginnings to becoming the UK's leading business utility comparison service

Founded with a Simple Mission

Lava Energy was established in 2015 by a team of energy industry professionals who saw firsthand how difficult it was for businesses to navigate the complex utility market.

We noticed that while comparison services existed for consumers, business owners were left to spend valuable time researching suppliers and negotiating contracts themselves.

Our founders set out to create a service that would make utility comparison simple, transparent, and accessible for businesses of all sizes across the United Kingdom.
