We own around 23,900 kilometres of high-voltage lines and cables, transporting electricity to 42 million homes and businesses. Our task is complicated by the rise of renewable energy. Concerns about the safety of nuclear power, future fossil fuel shortages and global warming, are turning the market away from traditional electricity production and European governments want us to integrate more energy from renewable sources in our grid. This is called ‘the energy transition’.
