Sustainability

Building a sustainable future for energy supplies makes business sense. It's what our customers, employees and shareholders expect from us. It's also part of our responsibility to minimise the environmental impact of our activities.

We're focusing our investment for a sustainable future in two key areas, developing alternative energy sources and off-setting carbon emissions.

Renewable energy

Centrica is planning to invest more than £1.5 billion in a number of wholly owned and joint venture renewable projects over the next 5 years. See how the plans are taking shape already and where new wind farms have been built. How we invest in renewable energy

Emissions trading

We're working to meet EU targets to reduce carbon emissions as agreed in the Kyoto Protocol. Through emissions trading we can trade credits to off-set our carbon emissions and encourage sustainable development in other countries. Find out more about emissions trading
