About First Utility
First Utility is the UK’s largest independent supplier of energy.
Fist Utility is based in Warwick, England, and it is the seventh largest provider of gas and electric in the United Kingdom.
Being smaller than some of the other energy providers in the UK, First Utility has been able to focus more on the technology behind the energy industry than other companies.
As a result, First Utility has emerged as a leader of new technology. A case in point is smart meters, like the one image above.
A Brief History of First Utility
Unlike the majority of energy providers in the UK, First Utility does not have an extended history dating back at least a century. Instead, it is a very recent creation having come into existence in 2008. Co-founders Mark Daeche, Marcus Citron, and Darren Braham created First Utility as a spin-out from First Telecom. From that point on, the company has continued to grow in the UK, providing an ever-wider range of service for domestic and business energy customers.
In 2015, there has been talk about First Telecom releasing an initial public offering.
In addition, First Telecom is looking into funders for future foreign expansion into new markets. At all points during their existence, First Utility has marketed itself as a smarter, cheaper, and more transparent alternative to energy.
