    Nobody is going to do a deal like that. You wouldn't expect to be able to say to Tesco "If i give you £100 a week can i help myself"

    I think you mean unmetered sites. They quote for annual usage and you pay that way via suppliers, often with such as 500kwh sites, lamposts, mobile phone masts, etc...

    There was something like that around a while ago. It cost more than any other tariff. Even if you left the heating on high 24/7 and all the electrical devices possible were left on then it would have still been cheaper paying for the actual usage on a good tariff.

    Here you go it's called Staywarm http://www.eonenergy.com/At-Home/Products/Products-Electricity-And-Gas/Electricity-and-Gas/StayWarm/

    and the MSE article.

    Staywarm certainly did that a good few years ago,subsidised. pay a monthy tariff based on how many bedrooms in house, for as much electric as you like.then Powergen bought them out and brought in different monthly payments in 3 tiers, am not sure how this set up operates now.
