The E.ON and OVO merger - what you need to know
Updated on 01/10/26 by Chris_OVO
We're becoming part of E.ON, and we've received the necessary regulatory approvals.
Our Home Services business, which includes boiler insurance and servicing, has moved to Hometree after getting regulatory approval.
We know this is a big update, so we want to explain what it means for you and what happens next.
What does this mean for our customers
Right now nothing changes.
You don’t need to do anything. Your energy supply, your tariff, and the way you interact with us all stay the same. The same teams will continue to support you, just as they do today.
We’ll keep you updated as things progress, and we’ll let you know well in advance if anything is going to change.
Why we’re joining E.ON
We’ve spent the past 16 years building OVO into one of the UK’s leading energy suppliers, helping millions of customers use less energy, and make greener choices.
Looking ahead, we believe being part of a larger energy group like E.ON is the best way to keep building on that and continue improving what we offer to customers over the long term.
What happens next
As of 01 October 2026 E.ON have been given the light by the CMA (Competition and Markets Authority) to acquire OVO.
Until the deal completes, OVO and E.ON will continue to operate as separate businesses and everything stays as it is today.
You don’t need to do anything. Your energy supply, your tariff, your balances and the way you interact with us all stay the same. The same teams will continue to support you, just as they do today.
When there are updates to share, we’ll be in touch with clear information about what it means for you.
