Cut-price power in-store
Supermarket giant E.Leclerc will this autumn start offering to supply electricity to customers at prices that will be 16% below the regulated price for energy.

Regulated tariffs offered by historic energy supplier EDF are still used by 26.5million households but other ‘market price’ suppliers undercut costs significantly without the need to shop at Leclerc.
