PFP Energy
PFP Energy was a British electric power company. It went bust on 7 September 2021[1] when windpower in the UK was low and electricity prices skyrocketed;[2][3] the same crisis took out several other power companies.[4] The company was based in Preston, Lancashire.[5] It was a non-profit.[6][7]
At the time of its collapse, the company had 82,000 domestic customers and 5,000 non-domestic customers.[8][9] It was the third company to cease trading in just a few weeks in the UK.[10]
British Gas took over the customers left over when PFP ceased trading, on orders from Ofgem.[11]
The company was founded in 2014. In 2019, it had 50,000 residential customers and 2,600 commercial customers.[12]
