How the new kids on the energy block are challenging the big companies dominating the market. Evan Davis talks prices, customer service and green energy.
Turning up the heat: the new energy companies breaking into a market dominated by big established firms. Evan Davis meets two small entrants to the sector to find out how they're gaining market share. Is the strategy to compete on price, customer service or green credentials?
