If you are fed up with Octopus,Bulb,Pure Planet,etc try OVO Energy
You can switch just Electric and still receive a £50 Amazon card using a referral link,just google OVO Referral link,there are plenty there.

At OVO, you get 100% renewable electricity as standard and access to our carbon-kicking green tech. We’ll also plant a tree in your name every year with the help of our friends at the Woodland Trust.

This means that just by joining them you’ll be restoring nature and cutting carbon – about 1 tonne of it a year.

    There is no supplier in the UK that prove such a claim. If you happen to live in the shadow of a gas-powered power plant then the bulk of the energy to your home will more than likely come from fossil fuels. Some suppliers purchase renewal energy, and some buy fossil fuelled energy with carbon offsets. They wholesale energy that they purchase enters the Grid at various points and there is no known way of pushing that energy to a particular home.

    This is a snapshot of our generation at the moment:

    I have been with OVO for a good few years.

    They are excellent.

    Would never change supplier and i get 5% discount on every bill.

    Also have an up to date smart meter.
