Every year Territory communities, towns and cities are affected by severe storms and the possibility of flooding and cyclones. Be prepared! See Cyclones, Storms and Floods Centre.

Unpredictable and powerful storms are a part of life in the Territory so it's important to be prepared. See Cyclone and severe flooding checklists.

If there’s a power outage, wait 15 minutes before calling, chances are we’re already on the way. If it's a life threatening situation call 000 or our emergency line 1800 245 090.

Try running your aircon between 24°C and 27°C and use a fan as well. This reduces humidity, cools the air and uses less power than an aircon going solo on a lower temperature setting.

Unplug appliances when an electrical storm is approaching. Appliance protection equipment such as UPS and surge protectors are available, but unplugging is the best protection against electrical storm surge.

Our home water use calculator has been developed to provide a simple guide to your home water usage. It allows you to see where you are using the majority of water in and around your home and how this compares to the Northern Territory average.

Our Virtual Energy Audit will show you how much energy your household uses and how much money you could save in each room of your home.

See Renewable energy products for information on products such as Renewable Energy Certificates and photovoltaic (PV) solar systems administered by Power and Water.

The Help save the planet! provides information on how to save power, be water wise and help save the planet! Information is specific to the Northern Territory, and there are links to some pretty cool stuff and other resources.
