Kayte discusses the ‘step change’ in NESO’s role as a whole-system operator and planner. This includes new responsibilities across electricity, gas and hydrogen to support a future energy system that is more joined up, more flexible and more resilient for consumers.
The conversation also explores:
- System resilience and security in a more complex, low-carbon energy mix
- Next steps on connections reform and working with industry
- The growing role of data, digital coordination and flexibility in how we run and plan the system
As Great Britain’s energy system evolves, NESO continues to focus on what matters most — keeping energy reliable, clean and affordable.
That means balancing supply and demand every second of every day, while planning for new technologies and changing patterns of use to benefit consumers.
