Can electrification solve the UK's energy security crisis?
Only 20% of the UK's energy demand is currently met by electricity. The other 80% is imported fossil fuel – gas, oil, petrol – priced by markets we don't control.
That's energy security problem is what the latest episode Talking Power is about. EDF Business and Wholesale brings together voices from across the energy industry to talk about why electrification – not just cleaning up power, but actually using more of it – might be the UK's clearest route to cheaper, more secure, home-grown energy.
We’re electrifying Britain – expanding access to clean energy and helping homes, businesses, and public services transition to a secure, affordable, low carbon electricity supply.
Through investment in generation, flexibility, innovative technologies, and smart customer solutions, we’re enabling a more secure energy system while cutting emissions.
