Security of Supply

As our energy is increasingly supplied from many different locations, we need to consider multiple factors that could affect our supply in the future. An understanding of these factors informs what actions are necessary to ensure our security of supply.

We will enable a foundation for a stable, reliable, and secure energy system through an integrated and co-ordinated approach to ensure our energy supply needs can be securely met. This will ultimately provide recommendations to government and industry to ensure the needs of the current and future energy system for all consumers and the whole of Great Britain.
