When do I need a gas provider?
- If you rent (or buy) an apartment or house directly from a landlord
- and your place uses local gas heating. To find out
- ask your landlord
- or check if you have these things on the first photo in your place
You usually don't need a gas contract
- when you sublet an apartment or room, because then your main tenant has already a contract with them.
How to order and pay a gas supplier?
- Find out whether your warm water is heated by gas.
- Estimate your consumption. Typical:
- apartment size 30 m²: 4350 kWh (no water heating) / 4800 kWh (incl. water heating)
- apartment size 50 m²: 7250 kWh (no water heating) / 8000 kWh (incl. water heating)
- apartment size 70 m²: 10150 kWh (no water heating) / 11200 kWh (incl. water heating)
- apartment size 90 m²: 13050 kWh (no water heating) / 14400 kWh (incl. water heating)
- apartment size 110 m²: 15950 kWh (no water heating) / 17600 kWh (incl. water heating)
- Compare providers or pick a provider from the list below
How do I get billed?
- Based on your consumption estimation, they calculate a monthly prepayment rate for you. Pay that rate now every month.
- After a year (usually), they measure your actual consumption.
- If you used less than your estimation, you will get money back and your monthly prepayment rate will be lowered.
- If you used more than your estimation, you will need to pay the difference and your monthly prepayment rate will be raised.
Compare gas providers
Comparison services know the current offer on the market. Enter your data and they help you find the best offer for you.
