Who we are

National Grid Electricity Distribution owns and operates the local electricity network across the Midlands, South West and South Wales.

We are a distribution network operator, or DNO. We are not your electricity supplier, and we are different from National Grid Electricity Transmission, which manages the national high-voltage transmission network.
