Export Contracts
Export your surplus electricity back to the grid.
Make use of your spare generation capacity with an Export Contract
If your business generates surplus electricity, for example from Combined Heat & Power (CHP), you can export this back to the grid.
EIC has considerable experience in negotiating flexible energy supply contracts for exporting electricity, combined heat, power, and energy that are tailored to managing positions on our clients’ behalf in the most effective way.
We fully understand what is available and achievable when negotiating with suppliers.
EIC will negotiate on your behalf, where appropriate, the following:
- Export power price
- Management fees
- Percentage share of Renewable Obligation Certificates (ROCs) buy-out fund and recycling payment
- ROCs processing fees
- Fixed ROCs price
- Percentage share of Levy Exemption Certificates (LEC) benefit
- Percentage share of Triad benefit

We’ll analyse each offer received, negotiate with each supplier and rank final offers against an appropriate scoring benchmark agreed with you. From this, we shortlist the leading suppliers and negotiate the best overall solution ensuring you are fully involved at each stage of the process.
You’ll be appointed a dedicated Account Manager and Flexible Procurement Negotiator who will arrange your export contract. They will also communicate directly with your Meter Operator (MOP) regarding supply details, metering type and any issues regarding communications link / type.
