Our Stakeholder Engagement

Working with external specialists we have created our new Stakeholder Engagement Strategy. It has been built on our stakeholders’ input and best practice. It includes why we engage, what our ambition is for stakeholder engagement, our strategic objectives and enhanced principles.

We are currently developing an Action Plan that will help us deliver our new strategy. It will detail what steps we’ll take to achieve our ambition to be at the forefront of engagement practice and achieve real benefits for our stakeholders and society.

It is only through successfully involving people in our business activities, that we will be able to develop an understanding of our stakeholders and their needs. And it is only with this understanding, that we will be able to conduct our business in way that enables us to meet them.

The Stakeholder Engagement Incentive is intended to encourage electricity distribution network operators (DNOs), gas distribution network operators (GDNs) and Transmission Operators (TOs) to engage effectively with a wide range of stakeholders and use the outputs from this process to inform how they plan and run their businesses. We are delighted to share with you our Part 1 and Part 2 2019/20 Stakeholder Engagement Incentive Submission. Part 1 of our submission explains how we have developed, consulted on, published and embedded a new Stakeholder Engagement Strategy. Part 2 of our submission focuses on how we have delivered stakeholder benefits through holistic engagement. Our submission is currently being assessed by our Regulator, Ofgem.
