Pros and cons
Stadtwerke Münster
Pros
- The green tariff is 100% renewable, backed by certificates.
- Tariff choice is broader than Endesa, whose list runs fixed, time of use and ev, with dynamic and variable options added here.
- Full fibre broadband to 1,000 Mbps download and 75 to 300 Mbps upload, with the entry plan priced from €37.99 a month.
Cons
- Support runs on help centre only, with no phone line or live chat listed.
- Unit rate ranks 16 of 23 on the comparison page, so unit price is the weaker part of the offer.
- A smart meter is required, which rules out households needing one installed before they can move.
Tibber
Pros
- Tariffs in fixed and dynamic shapes let you pick a known rate or follow the market, and the fuel is listed as electricity so the quote stays simple.
- The renewable mix is 100% and rests on certificates, which is how a household backs a green claim on an ordinary electricity supply.
- 1,000,000 customers use the service, and the mobile app is central to how the tariff and usage are managed day to day.
Cons
- A smart meter is required, so a home waiting on an installation has to fit one before a Tibber tariff can start.
- Support runs on email, chat and help centre only, so an urgent billing problem has to go in writing or into a chat window.
- Supply covers electricity, so anyone wanting gas alongside electricity needs a second supplier.
Who each suits
Stadtwerke Münster
Who it suits
- Households in Münster wanting renewable electricity and full fibre from one supplier.
- People on a dynamic or time-of-use tariff who are happy to have a smart meter in place.
- Customers who prefer a long-established municipal company to the widest tariff list.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone after an electric vehicle tariff, since that sits in Endesa's fixed, time of use and ev and not in this range.
- Households wanting phone or chat support, since support runs on help centre only.
- Shoppers who want a longer contract than 12 and 24, or a broader dynamic and variable mix, which Powerpeers lists as dynamic, fixed and variable.
Tibber
Who it suits
- Households in Germany, Netherlands and Norway that already run, or can fit, a smart meter and want their electricity managed from a mobile app.
- People who like choosing their own level of risk, since fixed and dynamic tariffs cover a fixed rate alongside a market-linked one.
- Buyers who put green credentials first, as the mix is 100% and rests on certificates.
Who should look elsewhere
- Households without a smart meter, and anyone wanting gas, because supply covers electricity only.
- Buyers who want to phone a supplier, since support runs on email, chat and help centre only.
- Shoppers who want a variable or green option alongside fixed, where Powerpeers lists dynamic, fixed and variable.

Questions about each
Stadtwerke Münster
What does electricity cost on the green tariff?+
Unit rates run €0.30 to €0.31 on the green tariff, with a standing charge of €14.97 on top. The unit rate ranks 16 of 23 on the comparison page, so the cost of the energy itself, rather than the standing charge, is where this supplier sits higher.
Does the price change when the contract renews?+
The same price holds from the opening month to the last under Same price from first to last contract month, so there is no introductory rate that later disappears. Fixed terms run 12 and 24, which is how long that price is locked for before the next decision point.
Tibber
What does a unit of Tibber electricity cost?+
Tibber publishes a unit rate of €0.21 to €0.50, and on the comparison it ranks 13 of 23 brands on that figure. That is a mid-range position, so the entry price is neither the sharpest nor the heaviest among the suppliers listed.
What happens when the fixed term ends?+
The fixed tariff is priced for a term of 12 months, with unit rates published as €0.21 to €0.50. Since that rate covers the term it is bought for, the figure worth checking before signing is what applies once the term rolls over, and the dynamic option is the alternative at that point.
