Electricity – retail & networks
Electricity is distributed to the Parish by Central networks - until recently a division of Eon-UK, but in April 2010 Central Networks was purchased by PPL WEM Holdings plc, so website and contact details on the link above may change during 2011. Use the link above to contact them regarding any power outages or concerns.
Since around 1998 your electricity can be purchased from any of the retail electricity supply companies such as NPower, Eon-UK, and British Gas etc. You can see all of the avalable suppliers and their prices at uSwitch.
