The future is exciting for

Centrica Power

! We will be energising a greener, fairer future by investing in low-carbon energy assets that will enable the energy transition across the UK and Europe.


Over the coming years we'll add value to the Centrica portfolio by investing in areas and technologies that enable the energy transition and that offer superior returns. For example, we're generating zero-carbon energy through solar and other assets, using fast response gas engine power plants (known as "gas peakers") and battery storage to balance the demand for energy, working with our partners EDF to manage our 20% stake in the UK's nuclear fleet and even investing in exciting new technology such as liquid air energy storage.


Our USP is that we can leverage Centrica's position as a uniquely integrated services and solutions company. By working closely with our colleagues, we will transform the energy landscape and play a leading part in transitioning to a net zero future.
