Overview

• Rebel Energy, a UK energy supplier with around 90,000 customers, has ceased trading as of April 1, 2025.
• Ofgem has assured affected customers that their energy supply will continue uninterrupted and credit balances are protected under its Supplier of Last Resort (SoLR) mechanism.
• The regulator is working to appoint new suppliers and advises customers to await contact from their new provider before switching or canceling direct debits.
• Rebel Energy's collapse follows a provisional order by Ofgem in March 2025 for non-compliance with renewable energy obligations.
• This development coincides with a rise in the energy price cap, adding to financial pressures on households already grappling with high energy costs.
