About your power
Remote water supplies
Am I a remote customer?
In the towns and communities shown on the map below, we're the power retailer and network provider. This means we organise your power meter installation and you pay your power bill to us.
If you live in Jabiru, Nhulunbuy and Alyangula you are also a remote customer. In Jabiru, we do not generate the power, we operate the network to distribute the power and we are the power retailer.
In Nhulunbuy and Alyangula, we don't generate or distribute the power. We pay a third party to supply your electricity. We are still your retailer so you pay your power bill to us.
If you don’t have a home or business marked on this map, you’re a residential or commercial customer and buy your power through another electricity retailer.
