Essential Energy

To get your new connection underway you will need to arrange for your National Metering Identifier (NMI). Your NMI is important as you will need to provide your NMI to your electrician for your electrical work to be carried out.

We can arrange for your NMI, please complete our new connection request form and return it to us via email [email protected].

Once we have received your new connection request form we will contact you and finalise the request. There may be delays if the request is inaccurate or missing information.

If you have any questions, please call our New Connections team on 1800 957 330 8am - 5pm Monday to Friday AEST/AEDT.
