About EDF
EDF was formed in 2002 and provides gas and electricity to homes and businesses throughout the country. It has around 5.7 million customer accounts, and is regarded as one of the Big Six energy providers, which also includes companies such as E.ON and British Gas. They have ensured that their name stays in the public eye with a series of high-profile sponsorship deals, such as their sponsorship of the London Eye and their sponsorship of the domestic cup in rugby union, which is now called the EDF Energy Cup. They also have a partnership with the British Red Cross, which helps vulnerable people get support during power cuts.
It is important to point out that, when it comes to electricity, they do not own the pylons and cables, so if you have a power cut or other similar issue, you should contact the relevant company responsible for the electricity network in your area. Any other problems should be reported to EDF though, with the best way to contact them being the EDF contact number found on this site. Don’t forget that this number is low cost, so you won’t waste money when you next call EDF using it.

How Will the Brexit Affect Energy Bills?
The Brexit is going to have a massive effect on all manner of different parts of life, from the money you spend at your local shop, all the way through to the amount you pay in taxes. It will also have an effect on the amount that energy costs, for a few different reasons. So, will energy prices go up or down because of the Brexit? Keep on reading to find out more…
Before looking at the Brexit effect though, it’s important to say this: whether the price of energy goes up or down, you should ensure that you are on the best possible tariff. You can do this by ringing around all of the different energy companies and getting quotes, which you can then compare. You’ll find numbers for many of the big supplier on this site, including the EDF contact number, as well as numbers for First Utility, Scottish Power and E.ON. Why not start ringing them today?
Energy is About to Go Up
There’s no way of sugar-coating it: The Brexit is going to cause energy prices to rise across the board. Some might not care, valuing sovereignty over money, but for many this will mean a tightening of the finances. The main reason for this rise in prices is the fact that sterling is plummeting in value, and is expected to keep on falling – HSBC predict it will lose 20% of its value in total. This in turn leads to a poor exchange rate. But why does a poor exchange rate affect energy prices?
Well, the answer is simple: Britain imports a lot of energy from Europe. Therefore, the pound will buy less energy than before, thus increasing the overall price. If the pound did drop by 20%, as predicted, this would lead to another £4bn being added onto the bill – a bill that consumers will have to foot. When this figure is broken down, it means that the average UK household will be paying around £150 a year extra for their fuel.
More Expensive Infrastructure
Some people might be thinking now “why don’t we just produce our own energy then?” Well, unfortunately it’s not quite as simple as that. This is because the devaluing will also increase the costs of building new infrastructure massively, due to the fact that many important pieces of the infrastructure have to be bought from abroad. What’s more, investing in the UK is now seen as much riskier, which will mean that borrowing money to improve the infrastructure will be far more expensive than before.
This threat to infrastructure has already started to rear its head, as the Chinese owners of Hinkley Point – the first new nuclear power plant in the UK in a generation – are extremely concerned that construction costs are now going to spiral out of control. While it is unlikely that the rising costs will derail the project, it is the case, once again, that the increase in costs will eventually get passed onto the consumer.
But What About the VAT?
Brexit supporters do make a valid point when they state that the UK is now free to remove the 5% rate of VAT from energy, and instead replace it with a 0% tax. This would, of course, lead to a 5% saving on bills, which some say will reduce, or even eradicate, the effect of increased costs. There is a huge problem with this reduction of VAT though, meaning that it probably won’t be economically viable…
The problem is this: removing the VAT from energy would cost the government around £1.6bn a year in revenue, which is quite clearly a huge amount. In fact, this is about one quarter of the yearly net amount sent to Brussels each year. The government quite simply doesn’t have this kind of money floating around in its finances, so cuts and savings would have to be made elsewhere. Once again, it would be the British public who would eventually be affected by the cuts being made. Would these cuts be less painful than higher energy costs though?
So, thanks to Brexit, it looks very much like energy prices will rise in the near future. Increasing costs of imports, combined with higher costs to develop new infrastructure, will almost certainly start to hit the energy companies soon, and these costs will be passed onto you. So, it’s more important than ever to find yourself the best energy plan possible, which you can do by ringing the numbers found here at Contact Number UK.
