Centrica is a leading energy services and solutions provider that traces its roots back to the historic British Gas Corporation. Established as a distinct entity in 1997 following the demerger of British Gas plc, the company was created to focus on the retail supply of gas and electricity, as well as providing essential home services such as boiler maintenance and smart home installations.
Headquartered in the United Kingdom, Centrica operates primarily through its well-known retail brands, including British Gas in the UK and Bord Gáis Energy in Ireland. The company has evolved from a traditional utility provider into a modern energy services firm, investing heavily in renewable energy, battery storage, and smart technology under its Hive brand. Its operations are concentrated in the UK and Ireland, where it serves millions of residential and business customers.
As a publicly traded company listed on the London Stock Exchange and a constituent of the FTSE 100 Index, Centrica is its own ultimate owner. It continues to play a pivotal role in the UK's transition to net zero, managing significant renewable assets and flexible peaking generation while providing integrated energy solutions for a greener future.
