It is important to know the unit rate of gas. There are online comparison websites that help compare tariff rates of different gas companies. This comparison may include the standing charges as well as any discount or bundled offers. The single unit gas rate is determined based on every kWh a typical consumer consumes. The gas suppliers are regulated utility companies so they do not add any markup that is not disclosed to the energy regulators.
All gas contracts have a unit price that is measured in kWh or kilowatt hours of energy. This rate can fluctuate based on the amount of energy used by the consumers and many other factors. Depending on the deal selected, you can receive a variable or fixed unit rate for the gas. The cost estimate may include any additional taxes that government charges on these energy supplies. The unit cost shows the price after calculating any subsidy, discount or rebate offered by the government to retail consumers.
