Welcome...

Electricity North West Limited owns one of the original fourteen regulated electricity distribution networks in England, Wales and Scotland.

Electricity North West limited has a licence which specifies a distribution service area within which it has to provide services to electricity supply companies. Our service area covers the North West of England. 

We distribute electricity to customers' homes on behalf of the electricity supply companies. Customers receive their electricity bill from their supplier who pays us for use of the electricity network. Our first priority is to ensure the reliable supply of electricity in the North West, done in the safest possible way. 

Electricity North West Limited currently has 13,127 km of overhead lines, 43,136 km of underground cables, and 33,822 transformers serving over 2.3 million customers in the North West of England.  We also operate, maintain, construct and repair these assets. 

The price that we can charge for distributing electricity is regulated by the Gas and Electricity Markets Authority ('GEMA'), operating through the Office of Gas and Electricity Markets ('OFGEM') under a price regime which is reviewed every five years.  We are currently in the period 2010-2015.
