Sustainability

We're leading the way to a greener future.

We are committed to reducing our own carbon emissions by at least 80% by 2040, investing in low-carbon technologies, and developing a greener, smarter network to help the UK meet net zero. Our approach ensures that communities, businesses, and the energy sector can transition seamlessly to a sustainable future.

	Sustainability initiatives We are actively driving sustainability through responsible procurement, changing our business practices, and openly reporting our environmental impacts to ensure our progress aligns with our net zero commitments. Our community energy and social impact programmes support local initiatives to adopt low-carbon energy solutions and enhance biodiversity.
Renewable energy integration To accelerate the transition to a greener future, we are integrating more renewable energy sources into our grid. This includes supporting solar and wind energy projects and enhancing network capabilities to accommodate increasing demand for clean energy.
	Enhancing energy efficiency Our investments focus on developing a smarter electricity network that enables more efficient energy distribution. We are working towards enhancing grid automation, reducing energy losses, and supporting customers in adopting more sustainable energy practices.
Carbon reduction commitments As part of our commitment to net zero, we are implementing key initiatives to decarbonise our operations and supply chain. Through smart grid development, reduced network losses, and proactive carbon tracking, we are ensuring a more sustainable energy future.
