08 December 2020 Centrica maintains CDP 'A' rating for climate change action

'We're committed to the decarbonisation of our energy system and reaching net zero. We know that our colleagues and customers care deeply about this too, and it's why our commitment extends to supporting customers with a range of services and solutions to help reduce their own emissions.'

Chris O'Shea, Group Chief Executive

Centrica has once again been identified as a world leader for strategic action on climate change by CDP, an international NGO reporting to investors.

This is the second consecutive year that Centrica has achieved a place on CDP's prestigious 'A List' for our action and disclosure on climate change, based on our climate change reporting in 2020.

This places us in the top 20 of UK companies, and we are one of only 19 companies in our sector globally to have attained the highest standard.

CDP's annual environmental disclosure and scoring process are widely recognised as the gold standard of corporate environmental transparency.

The Climate Change A List is published by CDP each year, alongside the A Lists for leadership on protecting forests and water security.

The full list of companies that made this year's CDP Climate Change A List is available here.

'We're incredibly proud to have again been recognised by CDP as a leader on climate ambition, action and transparency. We're making strong progress in de-carbonising our business as well as helping our customers reduce their emissions to make net zero a reality.'

Jim Rushen, Head of Environment, Centrica
