Pros and cons
Enel
Pros
- Exit fee of €0 puts Enel at 1 of 29 on leaving early, so switching the energy plan carries no charge at all.
- Unit rate of €0.11 ranks 3 of 23, which keeps the cost of each unit low against the suppliers compared here.
- Tariff types run fixed and variable with fuels covering electricity and gas, so a household can take light and gas from a single supplier on one account.
Cons
- Standing charge of €12 places Enel at 7 of 16, so a light user pays more of the bill through the fixed charge.
- Tariff types are limited to fixed and variable, so anyone after a dynamic or green option can compare Powerpeers, which lists dynamic, fixed and variable.
- Fuels cover electricity and gas and the fixed and variable pairing carries no prepayment or electric vehicle option, unlike Electricity Ratings at fixed, ev and time of use.
Rabot Energy
Pros
- An exit fee of €0 places Rabot Energy at 1 of 29 brands ranked on that measure, the strongest of its three placements.
- Green supply of 100% on a certificates basis, and a smart meter is not required, so the green option needs no new meter.
- Tariff types run dynamic, fixed and ev, putting fixed, dynamic, EV and green with a single supplier.
Cons
- A unit rate of €0.27 ranks 14 of 23 brands on that measure, so Rabot Energy is not the cheapest per unit here.
- The standing charge of €15 ranks 9 of 16, and it lands on the bill whatever you consume.
- Supply is electricity only, electricity, so a household that also holds a gas contract needs a second supplier.
Who each suits
Enel
Who it suits
- Italian households on IT who want light and gas from a single supplier
- Renters or movers who would rather leave a plan without an exit fee of €0
- Heavy users of electricity who gain more from a unit rate of €0.11 than from a low standing charge
Who should look elsewhere
- Households wanting a time-of-use or electric vehicle tariff, which Endesa offers through fixed, time of use and ev
- Buyers who want a dynamic or green option, which Powerpeers lists at dynamic, fixed and variable
- Anyone comparing only on tariff variety, since Electricity Ratings spans fixed, ev and time of use against the fixed and variable listed here
Rabot Energy
Who it suits
- Households in DE that want a green electricity tariff with a full year of fixed pricing and no exit fee.
- Drivers and EV owners, since dynamic, fixed and ev includes an EV tariff alongside fixed and dynamic.
- People who would rather not arrange new metering: a smart meter is not required.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone set on a variable tariff: Powerpeers lists dynamic, fixed and variable, and variable pricing is not in Rabot Energy's dynamic, fixed and ev.
- Households that want prepay or time-of-use pricing, both of which appear in fixed, ev and time of use.
- Buyers shopping mainly on the price per unit, given the mid-table position at 14 of 23.

Questions about each
Enel
What does Enel charge to leave an energy plan early?+
The exit fee on Enel's energy plans is €0, so leaving before a term ends costs nothing on the light and gas side. That is unusual among the suppliers compared here, and it matters most to renters and to anyone who expects to move during a term. Broadband from the same company runs under its own separate terms.
How do the unit rate and the standing charge work together?+
The unit rate is €0.11 and the standing charge is €12. The rate applies to each unit of energy consumed, while the standing charge is a fixed cost added whatever the usage. A household using a lot of energy gains more from a low rate, and a light user is more exposed to the standing charge, so both figures matter.
Rabot Energy
What does Rabot Energy charge for electricity?+
Rabot Energy's published figures are a unit rate of €0.27 and a standing charge of €15, with an exit fee of €0. The unit rate covers the power you actually consume, while the standing charge is a fixed cost for holding a connection at all. Budget with both figures side by side.
Is there an exit fee if I switch away from Rabot Energy?+
The exit fee is €0, so there is nothing to pay for ending the contract early, and that is the measure on which Rabot Energy sits at 1 of 29 brands. A free exit also suits renters and anyone who expects to move house during the term.
