As a responsible energy provider, they are planning for the future in two ways - by investing in renewable energy and by focusing on improving efficiency and helping customers reduce their carbon footprint.
Renewable energy will play an increasingly important part in the future of British Gas. They are planning to invest over the coming years in greener energy - primarily in offshore wind farms that take advantage of significant wind resource around Britain's coastlines.
In partnership with Windsave, they are currently piloting household wind turbines, which could enable customers to generate their own supply of electricity.

They use their profits to fund their investments, and recently asked their shareholders to invest more too, raising more than £2 billion for investment in the gas storage and nuclear power that the UK will need in the future.
