Important information about PowerNI tariffs

The effective tariff reflects the actual price per unit of electricity after applying all eligible discounts, such as Direct Debit and Online Billing reductions. These discounts apply only up to £250 per quarter (£1,000 per year) - usage beyond this is charged at the standard rate.

This means the overall savings depend on both how much electricity you use and which payment method you choose.

For PAYG (Keypad) customers, a flat 2.5% discount applies to all top-ups, and they are not affected by the £250 per quarter threshold.

This information is based on current Power NI current unit pricing and is detailed in their terms and conditions.

If your usage exceeds the threshold, your final costs may be slightly different from initial estimates. Please bear this in mind with final calculations.
