Hello…again a question to prepare ourselves before living part-time on HR,

Is there an independent site where you can compare various energy supply companies?

Or are there people with a holiday home on HR who have good experiences with a certain company ?

We would really like to hear your remarks , regards, Max and Y

You're potencia will be -15kW. 

If you have an electricity bill from a previous owner when you are there, it will be shown. It's commonly 5.75 kW, but could be as low as 3.3 kW, or as high as 9.2 kW.

You will probably need to arrange for the services to be reconnected then. Your estate agent should be able to help you with that.

I would suggest starting with Iberdrola, who are likely to be the incumbent supplier, then once you have a history of consumption use a switching site to see if you can find a better deal. Personally, I'm with Iberdrola and am quite happy with them.
