Medically dependent on electricity?

Do you depend on electricity for medical or health reasons?  If so, you need to have a backup plan in case there is an electricity outage. Call 111 if you are feeling unwell or you do not have a backup plan in place.

Please ensure you have advised your electricity retailer that you are medically dependent. Their contact details will be on your electricity invoice.

The Electricity Authority’s website has further information on medically dependent consumers, click below for more information:
