Choosing a ENGIE fixed-priced, revisable downwards benefits you in at least three ways:

1. Your kWh budget is immune from price increases! The price you pay is fixed and can decrease according to the regulated tariff ⁽²⁾. You switch away from the regulated tariff, but you can switch back at any time free of charge.

2. MaConso service to analyze and adapt your personal energy consumption is included with all our fixed-priced, revisable downwards ⁽¹⁾.

Yes!
You are free to choose a fixed-price package, revisable downwards ⁽²⁾ and switch back at any time to the EDF regulated tariff on request and free of charge. We call it the principle of reversibility.

The regulated tariffs for electricity are provided by France's historic electricity supplier: EDF. They are set and revised by the state. They can therefore vary.
In contrast, whatever happens to electricity prices, fixed-price, revisable downwards guarantee that the price you pay remains the same throughout the contract period, for the price per kWh, and can only decrease according to the regulated tariff ⁽²⁾. When you sign up for a market package, you leave the EDF regulated tariff for electricity, but you can switch back at any time free of charge. Switching to an ENGIE fixed-price, revisable downwards package benefits you in at least three ways:

1. Your kWh budget is immune from price increases! The price you pay is fixed and can decrease according to the regulated tariff (2). You switch away from the regulated tariff, but you can switch back at any time free of charge.

2. The MaConso service to analyze and adapt your personal energy consumption is included with all our fixed-priced, revisable downwards (1).

3. The ENGIE fixed-priced, revisable downwards (2) is simple: your old contract is canceled on the same date as the new one comes into effect.

For more information, take a look at Electricity contracts.

The amount shown on your bill is made up of the standing charge and the cost of the electricity consumed in kWh.

The standing charge and price per kWh will depend mainly on:

- the amount of power you need for your home, which depends on the number and consumption characteristics of your appliances, the type of heating you use, the type of energy you use for water heating, etc.
- the type of metering: single or peak / off-peak hours.


The ENGIE electricity market package gives you a price per kWh that is guaranteed not to rise ⁽²⁾

The regulated tariff marketed by EDF changes every year by ministerial decree. But the cost of ENGIE fixed-price, revisable downwards ⁽²⁾ can only decrease according to the regulated tariff. At the end of the period, your contract is renewed for the same period as before. You are notified of the new price 1 month before the end of your contract.

No. You will keep the same meter and the quality of your energy supply will remain unchanged. The quality of electricity supply and the public power grid are guaranteed by ENEDIS. ENEDIS has a public service mission for all customers, regardless of their energy supplier. To find out more about the public service mission of ENEDIS, please visit the ENEDIS website

With the ENGIE fixed-price, revisable downwards ⁽²⁾ that's simple: your old contract is canceled on the same date as the new one comes into effect.

ENGIE provides you with a simulator that allows you to calculate the electricity consumption of your home. You can then estimate your likely electricity consumption and choose the ENGIE package best suited to your needs and budget.

All you need to do is enter:

- the length of fixed-price electricity package you want
- the town/city and zip code for your home
- the floor area of your home
- the date your home was constructed
- the number of occupants
- the use you make of electricity in your home (heating, cooking, hot water, etc.)
- whether you use the peak / off-peak hours system

The simulator will use this data to estimate the price of your annual standing charge and the price per kWh for the alternative ENGIE fixed-price, revisable downwards electricity packages.
