In the event of a power cut, our teams work around the clock to restore your electricity as quickly as possible. We appreciate for some customers this may be particularly distressing and that’s why we offer extra support to customers who feel they need our help.
If you would like to be added to the Priority Services Register,

- Are over the age of 60
- Have a special communication need
- Depend on electricity for home or medical care
