Our journey so far

Climate change is the defining challenge of our time. As an essential part of the energy systems in the UK and Northeast US, we are unwavering in our commitment to deliver a clean energy future. In 2022 we launched our Climate Transition Plan , which sets out our actions to meet our Group GHG reduction targets by 2050.

As part of our 2023 charter, we have renewed and enhanced our environmental commitments, ensuring alignment to climate science and industry best practice; pushing us to accelerate the pace of, and broaden the scope of, our work toward a sustainable future.

Our near-term targets are aligned to a 1.5°C pathway under the Science Based Targets initiative and we're working towards net zero as a Group.

Achieve net zero by 2050 for Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions

  • Reduce Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions 60% by 2030 (from a 2018/19 baseline)

  • Reduce Scope 3 GHG emissions 37.5% by 2034 (from a 2018/19 baseline)

  • Move to a 100% electric fleet by 2030 for our light-duty vehicles and pursue the replacement of our medium- and heavy-duty vehicles with zero carbon alternatives

  • Reduce sulphur-hexafluoride (SF6) emissions from our operations 50% by 2030 (from a 2018/19 baseline)

  • Reduce energy consumption in our flagship offices 20% by 2030 (from a 2019/20 baseline)

  • Reduce our annual air travel emissions by at least 50% by 2025/26 (from a 2019/20 baseline) and offset any remaining emissions responsibly

  • Engage with the top 50% of our US suppliers by emissions to establish a decarbonisation roadmap/action plan towards a Science Based Target by 2025/26

  • The top 80% of our UK suppliers by emissions will have formally committed to set a Science Based Target by 2025/26

Tackling climate change is the biggest challenge facing our generation and we have a key part to play. We need to connect increasing amounts of renewable energy from the North Sea and the UK’s East Coast to the national electricity grid so that we can move to a cleaner energy system. Learn about the work we're doing to transform the network for a different low carbon future.
