YOUR NEW ELECTRICITY SUPPLY IS LIVE

Historically, only Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) could carry out a new electricity connection. DNOs own and maintain the local wires that take power from the National Grid into homes and businesses. Ofgem, the industry regulator, now actively encourages ‘Competition in Connections’. Rock Power Connections is fully accredited to undertake this work being an Independent Connections Provider, ICP, who is listed on the National Electricity Registration Scheme (NERS) also known as Lloyd’s Register. This is good news for customers as it provides greater choice. Instead of only being able to go to your DNO, you can now receive a competitive price and dedicated customer care from an independent connections provider like Rock Power Connections.
