Positively shaping the energy and climate change agenda with our external stakeholders in both regions
Our aim is to embrace, address and lead on the current and future issues affecting the energy market. We are committed to safeguarding the global environment for future generations, taking positive action to reduce our contribution to climate change and other impacts on the environment. We strive to be an environmental leader and will work with our UK and US regulators to develop the regulatory framework required to address the changes in future energy supplies.
This year has seen significant changes to UK government policy with the introduction of the Climate Change and Energy Acts, which will implement a wide range of measures including setting carbon budgets on a national scale and enshrining climate change targets in law. In the US, energy policy is expected to change significantly following the administration change. In addition, energy efficiency, security of supply and the cost of energy will be key areas of focus.
