An Electric Britain

At EDF we believe that electricity is the key to a secure, affordable and clean future. 

Switching more activities from fossil fuels to electricity and building the infrastructure to produce low carbon power in this country is how Britain can meet its energy, security and climate goals.

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.

Rising energy bills: Can anything be done? Absolutely.

Over recent weeks, the cost of energy and the impact on household bills have been making headlines. This is perhaps unsurprising as we approach the point in the year where people are turning on their heating and bills remain c. 40% above pre-crisis levels.

Managing constraints for Clean Power: short-term fixes that could lower bills

Constraint costs are a growing issue for consumers. Increases to balancing costs – driven by the cost of constraints – will add £1.23 to the typical household monthly bill under the October 2025 price cap.

At the heart of our strategy is a simple belief: electrification is key to improving affordability, strengthening energy security, and tackling climate change

We're the fifth largest residential supplier in the UK and supporting electrification through low carbon heating, electric mobility, flexibility services, and smart metering.
