Paying your SEFE Energy invoice is simple and straightforward. It can be done either by Direct Debit, BACS or a one-time debit or credit card payment.
Paying your business energy bills by Direct Debit takes the hassle out of monthly payments and means you’re less likely to miss a payment. We always recommend this as the best option to manage your business gas and electricity bills.
You can find more information on Direct Debits and how to pay your bills on our Help & Support page here.
To set up a new Direct Debit, simply print and complete a Direct Debit mandate form and return it to us. All Direct Debit transactions are covered by the Direct Debit Guarantee.

We often receive queries around estimated invoices where we estimate a customer bill based on the annual National Grid usage report. Customers can avoid estimated bills and manage energy payments by submitting a monthly meter reading. If you believe that your bill has been either under or over-estimated please provide a current meter reading via one of the methods described below and we will arrange to send you a corrected bill.

Your monthly invoices are available to view through our online customer portal, My SEFE Energy. Just log in on your device and navigate to ‘Invoicing’.
Each month, we look at the meter read from your last bill and your most recent one and subtract one from the other.
For electricity, this is how we determine your monthly kilowatt hours (kWh) used.
For gas we then use that number to convert those reads into actual gas used, using a formula to give us the exact amount of kilowatt hours (kWh) you have used.
The kWh amounts are then multiplied by the price of energy agreed on your contract to give us the cost of your energy usage that month.
Our helpful guide will break down all these costs for you and any other fields on your energy bills you would like to know more about.

The Climate Change Levy (CCL) is an environmental tax charged on the energy that businesses use. A means of encouraging businesses to be more energy efficient in how they operate, the CCL aims to reduce the overall emissions that businesses produce.
In simple terms, the more energy efficient your business is, and the less carbon-emitting energy you use, the less CCL you’ll pay.
You can find more information on the CCL in our Help & Support page here.
