"Transforming operations, behaviours and industry to power sustainable change"
We believe that our network will become a key enabler of the energy transition, whilst continuing to provide a vital service to our communities and beyond. We have an ambitious sustainability strategy outlining our plan to accelerate progress towards net zero over the RIIO-ED2 price control up to 2028 and aim to lead by example by reducing our own environmental impact in a transparent, credible way. We will deliver resilient, agile, reliable and decarbonised energy that customers depend on, in a way that is environmentally and economically sustainable and inclusive.
We are committed to propelling our business forward to achieve our sustainability ambitions whilst also supporting our customers and suppliers during the net zero transition.
