A Site Identification Number (Site ID) is a 13-digit number that Alberta energy companies use to identify your meter and bill you for energy used.

What is the Site Identification (Site ID) Number?

The Site ID is a number that refers to the "address" of your meter, and is like a serial number for your electricity or your gas. It is specific to your site, meaning that you have one Site ID for your natural gas meter and a different Site ID for your electricity meter. The Site ID is assigned by your local distribution company. It is used to identify your meter and to bill you for the energy that you have used.

To ensure that you will be billed accurately for your energy use, it is important to make sure your Site ID is correct when you sign an energy contract

Where Can I Find My Site ID?

You can find your Site ID on your bill, typically under or near the section outlining distribution charges, or near meter reading information.
