npower Announces Cashback Towards Winter Gas Bill With All Boiler Installations

WORCESTER, England, October 1, 2010 - npower hometeam has launched a new winter cashback scheme, which will see
customers installing a new boiler receive a one off cash payment towards
their winter gas bill.

The npower (www.npower.com/) winter gas cashback deal means that
any homeowners installing a new A-rated boiler through the company will
receive GBP349 cashback, the equivalent value of the average winter gas bill
from December to February*. What's more, by having a new A-rated boiler
installed, homeowners could save an additional GBP225 in energy costs.**

Richard Cotton, head of sales for npower hometeam, commented: "As the
weather gets colder and homeowners turn their heating back on, many people
with boilers over ten years old may find their systems are increasingly
inefficient and are more likely to break down, which is the last thing you
need during the winter months.

"By installing a new A-rated energy efficient boiler (
www.npower.com/web/150free/index.htm), they'll not only get added
peace of mind, but could also save hundreds of pounds in heating bills. At
npower, we realise that having a new boiler installed is a big investment,
which is why we've launched our winter gas cash back deal."

npower's winter cashback offer is available to any homeowner installing a
new A-rated boiler with npower hometeam until the end of the year.

For customers who want to protect their gas boiler, npower also has a
pioneering new boiler care service (
www.npower.com/web/HometeamCare/index.htm) called npower hometeam 50.
It offers boiler care including an annual boiler service (
www.npower.com/web/boilerservice/index.htm) usually worth GBP74 and
repairs.

hometeam 50 is priced exactly the same as British Gas' Homecare Flexi 100
at GBP10.50 a month with a fixed fee of GBP50 per repair, and offers the same
service - save for one important difference - npower's 50% No Call Out Cash
Back.

If you're an npower gas and electricity customer and don't call out
npower hometeam to work on your boiler during the 12 month agreement period,
npower returns 50% of the cost of your annual membership to you after your
year's anniversary, worth GBP63

*Based on 20,500kWh gas consumption per annum and seasonal profiling
