What role does National Grid play in my energy bill?

We receive a lot of questions about how your household energy bills are made up, and which parts of your bill relate to National Grid.

The bill you receive from your energy supplier is made up of a number of separate charges. Some of these charges are based on the different stages through which electricity makes its way from the producers to your home, so we explain this journey and where National Grid fits in.

What are multi-purpose interconnectors?

Multi-purpose interconnectors (MPIs) are subsea electricity cables that connect the UK’s electricity system to those of neighbouring countries and also connect offshore power generators – such as wind farms – to the shore.

What is a T-pylon?

The T-pylon is the first new design for UK electricity pylons in nearly 100 years and is a potential technology choice for future electricity transmission network projects, alongside the continued use of traditional lattice pylons.

Why invest in National Grid?
