Who Are Shell Energy?
Shell Energy is a utility company that supplies 100% renewable electricity with all its energy tariffs, believing green energy shouldn’t be a luxury you pay extra for, but instead a necessity. While first and foremost an energy company, Shell Energy can also offer customers smart home technology services, broadband and exclusive rewards at Shell petrol stations.
Shell Energy was initially born out of First Utility in 2018, which helped Shell Energy grow into a great value energy and broadband company having already laid strong foundations.
On December 1 2023, Shell Energy Retail Limited was acquired by Octopus Energy. As of January 2024, Octopus began transferring Shell Energy customers to their systems, which could take some months.

Shell Energy FAQs

What Is Shell Energy Smart Home Technology?
Smart Meters
Shell Energy offers smart meter installation, replacing your old analogue energy meters, and are installed at no extra cost with the latest SMETS2 technology - however, smart meter installation does require your house to meet certain requirements to be suitable.
Smart meters allow you to see your day-by-day usage while breaking down how and where you are using most of your gas and electricity. Although not for everyone, they’re a great way to ensure a non-estimated, accurate bill each month.
When you have a smart meter installed through Shell Energy you’ll be offered an In-Home Display unit to place in your home to make keeping track of your energy usage seamless.
Electric Vehicle Home Charging
Shell Energy offers a NewMotion home charge point at the price of £519. The 7.4kW-fast charge point is suitable for all-electric cars, weatherproof, online connected and safety approved, while also including a range of smart services, revolutionising electric vehicle smart charging.
The cost of installing a Shell Energy electric vehicle charging point includes wall mounting and cabling up to 15 metres. An OZEV Grant is also included, which means you could receive £350 towards the cost of installation where NewMotion takes care of the administration.
With the electric vehicle exclusive tariff, Shell Energy offers to cover the cost of 2,000 miles a year via a credit system that’s added to the customer’s account each month. As with all its tariffs, Shell Energy’s EV tariff is powered by 100% renewable electricity, too.
To switch to Shell Energy’s exclusive EV tariff you’ll also need to be willing to have a SMETS2 smart meter installed so your exact electricity usage can be tracked accurately.

What Is Shell Energy Solar Storage?
Shell Energy has a tariff exclusive to solar panel owners, giving customers the option of upgrading to a sonnenBaterrie energy storage unit to help reduce electricity bills.
The home battery stores the clean electricity generated by your solar panels to help you more efficiently use the renewable energy you produce, while also earning you solar credits in the summer when you could be generating excess energy, storing it for the winter when your electricity bills are generally more expensive.

Shell Energy Trustpilot Reviews
On Trustpilot, Shell Energy currently sports a 3.9 out of 5-star rating, earning themselves the title of ‘Great’.
While not the highest rating among other energy suppliers we’ve reviewed here at Energy Helpline, bear in mind that customers often go to Trustpilot to vent frustration at a particular company, so this Trustpilot rating might not fairly reflect all customer service Shell Energy has to offer.
