National Gas: Securing Britain’s Energy.
We are the national gas network, providing secure energy to power Britain, achieve net zero and maintain our industrial competitiveness.
About Us
Securing Britain’s Energy
Gas is an essential part of a secure energy supply in Britain and will continue to play a vital role in the energy system for decades to come. More than ever, we need the security that gas brings: to keep the lights on, businesses running and to protect jobs. National Gas provides that security.
We are responsible for transporting gas to power stations, major industries, storage facilities, more than half a million businesses and 23 million homes through nearly 5,000 miles of pipes across Britain.
We are also looking to the future. National Gas is working to deliver a hydrogen network across Britain – taking this low-carbon gas to where it’s needed, including power stations and major industrial businesses that cannot otherwise decarbonise their operations.
We are the national gas network, providing secure energy to power Britain, achieve net zero and maintain our industrial competitiveness.
