Clever Stuff to make lives easier

Innovation plays a major role in consistently improving what we do, driving efficiency today and into the future.

Whether it’s helping us rise to challenges, solve problems or make life easier for colleagues and customers, innovation presents opportunities to do things better.

Delivering improvement through innovation

One of our key objectives is to prepare the network to deliver Net Zero at the lowest cost to the consumer, whilst maintaining world-class levels of system reliability and ensuring that we support the needs of consumers in vulnerable situations.

To help us achieve this key objective are three innovation allowances: the Strategic Innovation Fund (SIF), Network Innovation Allowance (NIA) and Net Zero Use It or Lose it Allowance, which can facilitate the transition to a Net Zero future.

attended our Innovation workshop in March, a sell-out event.  The session brought together a broad cross section of national, local, customer and wider workforce representatives which helped to create a productive platform for debate and robust challenge on our plans.

At our Innovation workshop

stakeholders praised our engineer-led innovation but recognised a top-down approach is needed for major innovation projects such as the role of gas as part of a low carbon future.
