The fine print on the federal government's national energy guarantee should be ready by April.

Federal Energy Minister Josh Frydenberg told ABC Radio the design work will be presented at a meeting with his state and territory counterparts after Easter.

The national energy guarantee would involve energy retailers delivering a set level of ready-to-use power in each state to shore up reliability, while also being compelled to meet a lower emissions target.
