EDF Energy is offering a rare opportunity for UK households to win free gas and electricity for a year, a chance not just for customers but also non-customers. The energy provider is running a series of prize draws through December, promising four lucky winners a zero-cost energy tariff for 12 months.
This limited-time promotion is designed to attract attention amid rising energy costs across the UK, providing a much-needed incentive for people to engage with EDF’s services. The competition, which is open to both customers and non-customers, could offer significant financial relief, especially as average energy bills have risen substantially in recent months.
Four Draws, Four Winners: How to Enter
The prize draw is running from September to December 2025, with one winner being selected at random each month. While the promotion is open to non-EDF customers, participants must meet specific eligibility criteria. To enter, applicants need to be at least 18 years old, reside in Great Britain, and be responsible for the energy contract in their home. Notably, residents of Northern Ireland are excluded from the promotion.
According to EDF, each winner will receive a £0/month energy tariff, which covers both gas and electricity for an entire year from the tariff’s start date. This means that winners will pay no standing charges or unit rates for a full 12-month period, potentially saving hundreds of pounds on their energy bills.
The competition’s final draw will take place on December 21, 2025, so anyone interested should enter as soon as possible to avoid missing out. Once registered, participants will automatically be included in all future monthly draws, increasing their chances of winning.
Eligibility and Exclusions: Who Can’t Enter?
While the competition is widely accessible, there are several exclusions. EDF employees, affiliates, subsidiaries, and agents are not eligible to participate in the prize draw. This includes staff working across various EDF subsidiaries like EDF Trading, EDF Heat Pumps, and Pod. The promotion is also restricted to residential customers, meaning those entering must be responsible for the energy supply contract in their own homes.
Participants should also be aware that the competition is only available to residents in Great Britain. Those living in Northern Ireland will not be able to enter, even if they fulfil all other requirements. As with most promotions, it’s essential to read the full terms and conditions before entering, which can be found on the website.
