The company supplies electricity and natural gas to Italian residential and business customers, organized around three pricing models: indexed wholesale passthrough (FlexiWeb Zero), fixed-price 12-month stability (FixWeb Leggera), and regulated Placet offers. Its product portfolio also includes combined Luce + Gas dual-fuel packages, photovoltaic operating lease (Noleggio Operativo Fotovoltaico), voluntary renewable energy certificates (VER MET), electric vehicle charging solutions (Colonnina di Ricarica), and a renewable energy community initiative (MixWeb Make Energy Together / Comunità Energetica) offering a 10-year fixed F1 price of EUR 0.1045/kWh.

The underlying technology stack is a digital-first customer platform anchored by the MET&YOU mobile application on iOS and Android, a web self-service portal (it.met.com), an AI-powered WhatsApp chatbot, and a dedicated agent portal (Area Agenti). Customer segmentation is horizontal, with four size tiers (Residential / Per la Casa, Small Business, PMI, and Large Business), each with tailored pricing products and contract terms. Go-to-market is a hybrid direct-to-consumer and inside-sales model using digital channels, an agent network, and a customer service hotline (800 910 456, Monday-Friday 8:30-17:30). The company's revenue model is consumption-based subscription recurring revenue on commodity supply, supplemented by operating lease income from photovoltaic systems, licensing/royalty revenue from VER certificates, and ancillary fees from green and mobility add-ons. Cerved Rating Agency confirmed a public rating of A3.1 for 2025, citing customer base expansion as the performance driver.
