Company Profile

Mainline Energy is a multi-disciplinary energy consultancy and an appointed industrial & commercial gas and electricity supply broker. Mainline Energy can also offer financial modelling and turnkey embedded generation and battery storage projects, incorporating our own power quality improvement and control systems hardware. Additionally, Mainline Energy can offer electrical engineering, environmental consulting and comprehensive legal support through our association with Prospect Law, as explained further under the Legal & Consulting heading.

Mainline Energy has been an independent energy consultancy since 2007. Any partners and associates having had industry experience within the oil, gas or electricity industry itself. Our main objective as a firm is to continue providing open, well-informed and client-focused advice; responsively and competitively.

Where this applies, we can further assist the client on strategy, market entry and long-term supply matters through our day-to-day experience in dealing across trading & retail markets and access to our network of government, trade and industry contacts which we’ve collectively established over the last 30 years.

Energy Price Finder

Mainline Energy has brokerage agreements in place with Big Six, North Sea gas producers and independent electricity generators, also re-sale or referral agreements with manufacturers of embedded power generation, storage and associated hardware. We do not buy or trade energy ourselves nor do we re-sell energy products through a third party. Above all, we will aim to broker the most attractive deal we can, for retainer clients and prospective clients alike. Avoiding intermediaries or ‘virtual’ power producers we can source energy direct from the producer and may offer the client direct access to the most competitive rates available on the over-the-counter (OTC) wholesale and I&C direct supply markets.

Generally, after receiving the buyer’s requirements, we refer them to the producer whom we identify to be offering the competitive and suitable deal at the time, responding and transacting within the quickest possible time to limit exposure to changing OTC prices and reduce the size of the risk-premium charged, reducing the price for the consumer further still.

Our Energy Price Finder system is a quick, simple exercise; simply designed to help enable an end-user to make an informed price comparison and buy energy on the most competitive terms identified in the market.

Mainline Energy’s energy management, commercial analysis and project development services can be included within a  monthly retainer agreement or offered on a simple ‘ad hoc’ basis, as preferred. Mainline Energy can implement carbon and energy expenditure reduction jointly, focusing on efficiency, conservation, demand side management, enhanced purchasing and general cost-reduction which will include I&C gas & electricity bill checking, historic invoice auditing, refunds as well as various other efficiency savings found within the client’s energy purchase portfolio. Such services are explained further in the Energy Management heading.

In short, the Price Finder may be used by a buyer as a ‘second pass’ means to compare prices or source competitively priced energy at short notice. Mainline Energy can act help I&C buyers who are looking to secure a long-term gas or electricity supply on an annual supply contract or long-dated forward purchase agreement spanning two, three years or further into the future; again using our network of trading ad industry contacts across the OTC trading and I&C supply markets.

Should you be looking to renew a gas or electricity contract soon it will be useful for you to have meter point reference (MPRN) and administrator (MPAN) numbers to hand, also the relevant load-shape and Half-Hourly data we may need to expedite a quote.
