Flogas Ireland and Just Energy Ireland have received formal approval from the CRU for their commercial agreement to transfer Just Energy Ireland commercial and residential gas and electricity contracts in Ireland to Flogas by the end of December 2019.
There will be no impact on supply to the circa 10,000 Just Energy Ireland electricity and gas customers during the transfer period. Over the coming weeks, all Just Energy Ireland customers will receive communications from Flogas about their own accounts.
John Rooney, managing director, Flogas Ireland said, “We’re very pleased to welcome Just Energy Ireland commercial customers to Flogas. We’re working to ensure that they receive a great standard of service and exceptional value for their electricity and gas requirements and we will be in touch directly in the coming weeks. We presently offer very competitive commercial gas and electricity rates and we look forward to bringing those offers to our Just Energy commercial customers as well.
This acquisition of the Just Energy business is an exciting step forward for Flogas, as we aim to grow all elements of our business, LPG, natural gas, electricity and renewables across both the commercial and residential markets in the coming years. We are particularly pleased to be able to offer our Just Energy customers carbon neutral electricity as we have purchased carbon offsets to neutralise the carbon generated from the electricity supplied”, John Rooney continued.
The announcement follows the decision of Just Energy to exit the Irish market following an evaluation of its operations here.
Scott Gahn, President and Chief Executive Officer of Just Energy said, “Our customers are in safe hands with Flogas. Flogas is a premier energy provider that will continue to provide the quality of service that our customers in Ireland have come to expect. We have been working closely with them to ensure a seamless transfer.”
An Irish owned company, Flogas has been operating in the retail energy market since 1978 and already supplies natural gas and electricity to over 35,000 residential and commercial customers in Ireland.
On transfer to Flogas, some individual tariff details may change but Flogas is assuring customers that their annual estimated bill should not increase. Flogas has purchased carbon offsets equivalent to the carbon generated from the supply of electricity to Just Energy customers, so their electricity supplied by Flogas will be carbon neutral.

Following the official transfer date, which will be advised to Just Energy Ireland customers very shortly, contact the Flogas Customer Support Team in Drogheda on 041 9874 87.
