The best green suppliers according to the VertVolt label

The VertVolt label is a label issued by ADEME that certifies the quality of a green electricity offer, in the sense that it ensures that the electricity purchased is genuinely of renewable origin.

The VertVolt label has two levels depending on the supplier's commitment.

  1. Level 1 (committed) is awarded on condition that the supplier buys from renewable energy producers a quantity equivalent to the energy that it sells to the consumer ;
  2. Level 2 (highly committed). To achieve level 2, in addition to the requirements of level 1, at least 25% of the electricity sold must come from installations implemented by local authorities with shared governance, without public support.

Which electricity supplier offers the best customer service ?

To choose the best electricity supplier, it's also a good idea to look at the quality of a supplier's customer service. Customer service guarantees an optimal customer experience and a satisfactory, rapid response in the event of a problem.

Dispute rate according to the national energy mediator report

The dispute rate by supplier gives consumers an objective view of a supplier's quality of service. A low dispute rate reveals both the reliability of the service offered and the ability of the customer service department to deal with customer complaints satisfactorily without the need to contact the national energy mediator.

According to the national energy mediator's 2022 annual report, the top 3 suppliers with the lowest dispute rate are :

  1. EDF with 42 disputes per 100,000 contracts ;
  2. ilek with 50 disputes per 100,000 contracts ;
  3. Engie with 63 disputes per 100,000 contracts.

Here is the ranking of the best electricity suppliers according to their dispute rate:

Customer service awards

Viséo Customer Insights' annual Customer Service of the Year Awards are another good indicator of the quality of a supplier's customer service. 225 tests are carried out on each participating customer service department using the mystery shopper methodology. The institute tests customer service by telephone, e-mail, social networks and chat.

TotalEnergies has won numerous awards for the quality of its customer service. In particular, the supplier was voted customer service of the year for the eleventh time in a row up to 2018, and in 2023.

In recent years, Engie has also distinguished itself by being successively voted Customer Service of the Year 2022 in the Energy Supplier for Professionals category and Customer Service of the Year 2023 in the Energy Supplier for Individuals category.

Which supplier has the best customer reviews ?

To find the best electricity supplier, it may also be worth looking at customer reviews. Even if customer reviews alone are not enough to assess the overall quality of a supplier, they are nonetheless a significant indicator of customer satisfaction.
