Our path to net zero
We're building a smarter, stronger, and cleaner energy system to advance economy-wide electrification, support our customers' clean energy choices, and help our states meet their net zero targets.
Welcome To National Grid
National Grid is an electricity, natural gas, and clean energy delivery company serving more than 20 million people through our networks in New York and Massachusetts. National Grid is focused on building a smarter, stronger, cleaner energy future — transforming our networks with more reliable and resilient energy solutions to meet state climate goals and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Investing for growth
We’ve announced plans to invest around £60 billion across the next five years - a near doubling in investment compared to the prior period.
This significant scale of investment in our energy networks will unlock economic growth and enable the increasingly digital, electrified and decarbonised economies of the future.
By the end of the decade, National Grid will support more than 60,000 more jobs in the UK and northeast US.
To finance this unprecedented scale of investment and growth, we have announced a comprehensive financing plan, including a £7 billion fully-underwritten rights issue.
National Grid Commits to Investing $35 Billion in New York & Massachusetts to Meet Decarbonization Goals and Build a Stronger, Cleaner Grid
Projects across Northeast will harden grid, reduce emissions and deliver significant benefits for customers and local economies

Our latest stories
The history of wind energy
Wind is a growing source of reliable and clean energy around the world and a crucial part of the journey to net zero. But when did people first start to harness the power of the wind? What did wind energy look like and how has it evolved?
Electric Highways Study
Our Electric Highways Study forecasts the future of fast-charging along highway corridors in Massachusetts and New York, providing a first-of-its-kind blueprint for powering the EV transition in the U.S. Northeast to 2045.
What is renewable natural gas (RNG)?
RNG is derived from a variety of organic waste materials used in daily life. This abundance of renewable energy sources is important since wind and solar energy are intermittent and often rely on supplemental supply of power.
Why invest in National Grid?
We are one of the world's largest publicly listed utilities focused on transmission and distribution of electricity and gas. We play a vital role in connecting millions of people to the energy they use safely, reliably and efficiently.
