Residents can register to take part in the latest round of the scheme before the next energy supplier auction on Tuesday 2nd February 2016. The deadline for registration is Monday 1st February. Market leading tariffs were secured in the autumn round of Energy Deal and the average potential saving for Dartford Borough residents was £251 a year.
