MPRN (Meter Point Reference Number)

A unique reference number (6-10 digits) for your gas supply point.

What is an MPRN?

An MPRN (Meter Point Reference Number) is a unique identifier for gas supply points in the UK. It's the gas equivalent of an MPAN and contains between 6 and 10 digits.

Why is it important?

  • Switching gas suppliers: Required to identify your specific supply

    • Accurate billing: Links your usage to your account

      • Change of Tenancy: Used to register new occupiers

        Where to find your MPRN

        Your MPRN can be found:

        • On your gas bill (look for "MPRN" or "Meter Point Reference")

          • By contacting your gas supplier

            • Through the Find My Supplier service
