Line Charge Pricing
Northpower maintains the powerlines network in the Whangarei and Kaipara regions that Energy Retailers use to sell electricity to their customers.
We charge the Energy Retailer for using our Network, which ensures we have sufficient funds available to maintain and upgrade our powerlines network. The Energy Retailer can then decide whether they will pass on this cost to their customer.
We provide transparency to consumers in our Network area through regular disclosures including publishing our line charge pricing on our website.
Consumers can compare our line charge pricing against their powerbill with the amount the Energy Retailer is on-charging them.
For full details of our line charge pricing for domestic, non domestic and commercial connections, please visit our Disclosures section under About Us.
