Delivering a low-carbon Britain

EDF Energy is the largest producer of low-carbon electricity in Britain, but our ambitions for helping you to cut CO2 emissions don't stop there.

In the home, we are rolling out smart meters that can help to cut energy use in the home. On the road, we are working with businesses, car manufacturers and dealerships to roll out a charging infrastructure for electric vehicles, which could help to transform travel in the UK.

New ways of doing things at home and in schools

We are rolling out smart meters to thousands of homes across Britain in our ongoing trial of a technology that can help to cut home energy use. Team Green Britain Ambassador Victoria Pendleton put our Smart Meters to the test.

In schools, our Pod programme helps teachers engage children with sustainability - and encourages pupils to take the energy efficiency message home. There are already over 3 million pupils  learning about sustainability in Pod schools.
