Positive energy

Our Environmental Vision is “to make a positive contribution to our island environment for today and for the benefit of future generations”

We’ve committed to placing sustainability at the heart of our business. Not only is it the right thing to do, but it benefits our customers and the island.

Work with us

  • Community solar energy projects

    We believe that everyone on Guernsey should be able to use and benefit from renewable electricity. Our large scale PV installations feed into the network for everyone to use.

  • Community projects and competitions

    Supporting our community, whether that be educating students, supporting environmental projects or offering our expertise and skills is a key part of what we stand for. 

Taking the lead

We believe that the energy sector must take the lead in creating a greener and sustainable world. We understand our role and how we can help tackle climate change for our society.

We envisage a future where all our energy supplies come from renewable and sustainable sources. We will enable an energy system that supports renewables and reduces reliance on fossil fuels. We will embrace new technologies for everyone’s benefit and enjoyment. This is the greatest contribution we can, and will, deliver.

Alone we can do a little. But together as a community we can do so much, delivering a sustainable energy future for Guernsey.
