We worked closely with the government on the purchase from National Grid of the Electricity System Operator to form the publicly owned National Energy System Operator (NESO).

The 바카라 사이트 Actuary바카라 사이트™s Department (GAD) worked with the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ). DESNZ decided to set up NESO to drive progress towards net zero while maintaining energy security and minimising costs for consumers.

Clean power

The change means Britain바카라 사이트™s energy system will be planned by a new publicly owned organisation as part of an overall plan to help deliver clean power by 2030.

It will help connect new generation projects with the electricity grid, working alongside Great British Energy to deploy renewable energy. NESO launched on 1 October 2024.
