About Us

We've recently announced plans to invest around £60 billion across the next five years, a near doubling in investment compared to the prior period. This significant scale of investment in our energy networks will unlock economic growth and enable the increasingly digital, electrified, and decarbonised economies of the future. This makes us one of the biggest green investors in the sector, allowing us to revolutionise and decarbonise the energy future across electricity, gas, and renewables for the benefit of everyone.

A large part of this investment will be across the UK within the Electricity Transmission business, where we maintain the high-voltage electricity transmission network in England and Wales. We take electricity generated from windfarms and other power sources and transport it through our network of pylons, overhead lines, cables, and substations. It then goes on to separate lower voltage local distribution networks, which connect directly to homes and businesses.

Our goal is to drive, develop, and operate our business in a way that results in a more inclusive culture. All employment is decided on the basis of qualifications, the innovation from diverse teams and perspectives, and business need. We are committed to building a workforce that represents the communities we serve and has a working environment in which each individual feels valued, respected, fairly treated, and able to reach their full potential.
