Our verdict
MVV Energie suits households in Mannheim that want electricity and gas from one supplier, or the widest set of plan types on this list, with 135,000 customers already on the books. The green tariff is 100% renewable; the dynamic option asks for a smart meter.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Plan choice is the broadest in this set: fixed, variable and dynamic runs from fixed and variable through to dynamic, green and time-of-use, where fixed, time of use and ev covers a shorter list.
- The green tariff is 100% renewable, one of the stronger claims among the green plans on this site.
- Help comes through email, chat and phone, so a metering query or a bill can go to phone, chat, email or the help centre.
- A customer base of 135,000 sits behind the tariffs, and the contract is held by MVV Energie AG in DE rather than a broker or comparison site.
Cons
- The dynamic tariff in fixed, variable and dynamic comes with a condition: a smart meter is required, which rules that plan out for homes without one.
- The green tariff is backed by certificates rather than the supplier's own generation, so it is a certificate-based claim.
- Supply is limited to DE, with Mannheim named as the served region, so anyone outside that footprint needs a different supplier.
Who it suits
- Customers in Mannheim who want electricity and gas from one provider, since electricity and gas covers both.
- Households that want to choose between fixed, variable, dynamic, green or time-of-use pricing in fixed, variable and dynamic.
- Anyone willing to take a smart meter, which is what the dynamic tariff asks for.
Who should look elsewhere
- Electric vehicle owners after a dedicated EV tariff, since Endesa lists one in fixed, time of use and ev.
- Households that want a prepay structure, which Electricity Ratings carries in fixed, ev and time of use.
What it does well
The green tariff is sold as 100% renewable electricity, which is the cleanest claim on the range. A customer base of 135,000 points to an operation with real scale rather than a small regional outfit, even though the name is rooted in Mannheim. The dynamic tariff carries the one condition worth checking first: a smart meter is required, so it fits households already fitted with one or ready to take one. The fixed, variable and time-of-use options carry no such condition.
Who runs it
The contract is held by MVV Energie AG, a company registered in Germany, so a corporate entity stands behind the tariff rather than a broker or a comparison site. Support covers email, chat and phone: phone, chat, email and a self-service help centre, which means an account question can usually be raised without writing a letter. The legal name is the one to quote if a billing dispute has to reach the company itself, and it matches the DE market the tariffs are sold in.

Frequently asked questions
Which fuels does MVV Energie supply?+
MVV Energie supplies electricity and gas, so a household in its service area can take electricity and gas from the same provider rather than juggling two suppliers. Gas sits alongside the electricity range, which suits homes already with MVV for power and weighing a combined contract.
What kinds of tariff does MVV Energie offer?+
The range covers fixed, variable and dynamic. That is a wider spread than dynamic, fixed and variable at Powerpeers and fixed, time of use and ev at Endesa. Buyers who want to start on fixed pricing and move to variable or dynamic later have somewhere to go without changing company.
How long are the fixed terms?+
Fixed terms run 12, 18 and 24, so customers can take a shorter commitment or hold a price for longer. The variable, green and time-of-use options sit outside that fixed window, and the dynamic tariff follows the market rather than a fixed price.
Where does MVV Energie supply?+
Supply runs in Germany, and the served region is Mannheim. Households inside that area have the full set of tariffs to choose from. Anyone living elsewhere would need to look at a supplier that covers their own region.
Is the green tariff fully renewable?+
The green tariff is 100% renewable, and the basis is certificates. That is the most common basis for green plans on this site, so shoppers who want supply tied to a supplier's own generation rather than certificates should read the tariff wording closely.
Do I need a smart meter for the dynamic tariff?+
Yes, a smart meter is required for the dynamic tariff, and that is the one condition attached to it. Households without a meter installed should check what the rollout involves before choosing that plan, since the other tariffs do not carry the same requirement.
How do I contact MVV Energie?+
Support runs on email, chat and phone, so phone, chat, email and a help centre are all available. A metering query and a billing dispute go to the same company. The contracting entity is MVV Energie AG, which is the name to quote in writing.
How large is MVV Energie?+
MVV Energie serves 135,000 customers, and the business behind the tariffs is MVV Energie AG, registered in Germany. The name is rooted in Mannheim, which is also the region it serves, so a local base sits behind a sizable customer list.
