Our verdict

Aras Energy suits electricity only households in DE that want a short lock-in and a green option from the same supplier. Its tariff list covers fixed, dynamic and green and the fixed term runs 12 months, though support runs on email and help centre and fuels cover electricity alone.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • The range covers fixed, dynamic and green, so fixed, dynamic and green plans all sit with the same supplier.
  • Green power is stated at 100% renewable, with the claim backed by certificates.
  • The fixed term runs 12 months, so the commitment stays short.
  • Support runs on email and help centre, which suits people who prefer written answers.

Cons

  • The fixed term runs 12 months, and that is the only fixed length listed, so a longer commitment is not offered.
  • Fuels cover electricity only, so a dual fuel household has to place the gas side with a second supplier.
  • Support runs on email and help centre only, with no phone line for anyone who prefers to talk a query through.
  • Aras Energy lists fixed, dynamic and green, while Powerpeers adds a variable option to its dynamic, fixed and variable, so the choice here is narrower.

Who it suits

  • Households in DE that want electricity on a short commitment and are content to handle support by writing.
  • Anyone who wants a fixed price, a market-linked plan and a green plan from the same supplier, since the range covers fixed, dynamic and green.
  • Customers who read the terms before signing and keep their own records, which fits the written support route.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Gas households, because fuels cover electricity only.
  • Anyone set on a variable tariff, since Powerpeers lists dynamic, fixed and variable while Aras Energy lists fixed, dynamic and green.
  • Electric vehicle and prepay shoppers, because Electricity Ratings lists fixed, ev and time of use and Endesa lists fixed, time of use and ev, reaching tariff types outside Aras Energy's range.

The company behind it

Aras Energy trades as Aras Energy GmbH, and the company sits in Germany. A single home market sets the boundaries of the offer, so the tariffs are written for a single set of local rules, network arrangements and consumer protections rather than a cross border version. For most households that keeps the paperwork straightforward, and a single set of terms sits behind every plan. Anyone arriving from a different market should still read the terms closely, since the way a contract is written and ended follows local practice rather than a shared standard. Support runs on email and help centre. In practice that means a written route and a help centre, and it suits customers who would rather send a question than queue on a phone line. Anyone who needs to talk a bill through with a person has no direct line to a call centre in those channels, so that is worth weighing before joining. The name to look for on the contract is Aras Energy GmbH, which is the entity behind the tariffs.

Frequently asked questions

What kinds of tariff does Aras Energy sell?+

Aras Energy lists fixed, dynamic and green. That covers a fixed price plan, a dynamic plan that follows the market, and a green plan in the same range, so you can move between a stable price and a market-linked price without changing supplier. Powerpeers runs a similar mix, with a variable option added to its list.

How long am I tied in on a fixed tariff?+

The fixed term runs 12 months, which is a short commitment rather than a multi-year lock-in. It means your price is held for that stretch and then you are free to look elsewhere. Compare that length with suppliers that tie customers in for longer before you sign.

Does Aras Energy supply gas as well as electricity?+

Aras Energy covers electricity only, so the range is built around a single fuel. If your home runs both gas and electricity, the gas side would sit with another supplier, and comparing the two bills together gets harder. Suppliers that quote on more than one fuel are worth a look if a single account matters to you.

Is the green tariff fully renewable?+

Aras Energy states a renewable share of 100% on its green tariff. The basis behind that claim is certificates, which is how the supplier supports the green label on that plan. Plenty of green tariffs in the market are built the same way, so the percentage on its own gives the headline rather than the detail.

How do I get help from Aras Energy?+

Support runs on email and help centre. Written queries and a help centre cover most questions, and keeping the emails gives you a record of what was agreed. If you would rather speak to someone, weigh that against the options before you join, because a phone line is not part of the listed channels.

Where is Aras Energy based?+

The contract is with Aras Energy GmbH, which is based in Germany. A supplier built around a single market shapes its tariffs around the rules of that country, so terms and switching steps follow local practice rather than a cross border standard. Anyone arriving from a different market should read the terms closely before joining.

How does Aras Energy compare with Powerpeers and Electricity Ratings on tariff choice?+

Aras Energy lists fixed, dynamic and green. Powerpeers runs dynamic, fixed and variable, which adds a variable option, while Electricity Ratings lists fixed, ev and time of use and Endesa lists fixed, time of use and ev, both reaching electric vehicle and time of use tariffs. If you charge a car at home or want a prepay structure, those ranges cover ground Aras Energy does not.
