It is estimated that there are some five million homes in the UK affected by fuel poverty; we intend to invest around £10 million ($14.4 million) in new gas connections to some 5,000 homes. With others, we have secured commitment for around £13 million ($18.7 million) in third party funding for new gas heating. We estimate that this investment will help reduce emissions by 20,000 tonnes per year.

In the US, we have added around 60 new compressed natural gas cars to our nearly 700 strong fleet of vehicles this year, furthering our effort to reduce our carbon footprint and reduce greenhouse gases. Our generation stations make up a sizeable proportion of our carbon emissions. Ongoing projects to modernise and improve the efficiency of these plants, such as the project at Northport on Long Island, will play a major role in helping us reach our 80% target greenhouse gas emission reduction by 2050.
