Gas and electricity meters are read four times a year by ESB Networks and Bord Gáis Networks. They then send us your meter reading so we can calculate your bill. However as we bill you six times a year, for the remaining two bills we make an estimate based on your previous usage. To help improve the accuracy of this you can submit a meter reading yourself. To do this you will need your MPRN (or GPRN) and your meter reading. Energy Online customers can submit meter readings through their online account. We will send a reminder when its time to provide a reading.
