Who are we?

For those of you that don’t know the first thing about us, we provide gas, electricity and related services to homes and businesses. But that's where the similarities with other energy companies end. The UK’s brightest energy company, we operate and manage flexible, low-cost coal, oil and gas-fired power stations, established the UK's first major offshore wind farm and are developing other innovative energy-related technologies.

It’s a huge operation, and running it takes over 11,500 employees at 60 sites across the UK. Together we supply 10% of the electricity used in England and Wales, making us the UK's largest electricity supplier.

As part of the RWE Group, we also offer specialist services covering every aspect of owning and operating a power plant, from construction, commissioning, operations and maintenance to eventual decommissioning.
