With the UK aiming to reach net zero by 2050, much of the future electricity is expected to come from renewable energy. Although already part of our electricity mix, how much renewable energy are we using currently and how much more is needed?

With buzzwords like net zero and carbon neutral making their way into our vocabulary, we’re becoming more informed about climate change and the steps needed to protect the environment.

LNG is natural gas that's been reduced to a liquid state through cooling. It’s been part of the UK’s energy mix for many years, but could it be the fossil fuel that has yet to reach its true potential as we move towards low-carbon energy systems?

Sulphur hexafluoride – also known as SF6 – is a ‘greenhouse gas’ that has long played a part in global warming, similar to that of carbon dioxide (CO2).

You’ve probably heard the term ‘carbon intensity’ in relation to climate change and net zero. But what exactly does it refer to?

With the UK and US aiming to reach net zero by 2050, using electricity that comes from renewable sources is essential to help reduce our carbon emissions. Find about the different types of renewable energy sources we currently use for electricity.

Pylons – also known as electricity transmission towers – are the structural supports that have carried the UK’s network of high-voltage overhead power lines for nearly 100 years.

To avoid the worst effects of climate change, the world needs to halve its greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. Since COP26, we’ve been working harder than ever to deliver a clean, fair and affordable energy future, with no one left behind.
