Our progress towards net zero
We’ve come a long way from the early 2000s when the nation was mostly powered by coal and gas. Today, Great Britain has the fastest decarbonising electricity system in the world. But that’s only because of the work that we have been doing, together with industry partners, to transition to a sustainable future system.
Carbon intensity dashboard
As the UK closes in on its legally-binding 2050 emissions reduction targets, it’ll be more important than ever to understand how green our electricity is and the impact of any action we take to keep electricity flowing.
We’ve created a dashboard that shows, in real time, the carbon intensity of the system and our balancing actions as well as the current generation mix. It’s an exciting development, providing unprecedented transparency around and insight into our actions – and how close we’re getting to zero carbon operation.
