Energy & Environment
British Energy operates with a culture that recognises responsibilities to society to maintain safety and quality in all our operations. We recognise that the company's activities touch many people and raise a number of issues.
Nuclear and industrial safety are overriding priorities in our operations and the attention to detail in these areas is carried over to our environmental and social practices.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
British Energy is committed to being a responsible generator and trader of power. The bedrock of our commitment is being open, ethical, good environmental stewards, and above all operating safely at all times.
This year we participated in the Business in the Community Corporate Responsibility Index for the first time. The process evaluated our performance in CSR across the key subject areas covered in this Report - marketplace, workplace, environment and community - and resulted in the award of a Bronze Medal.
Our CSR report aims to give insight into our performance using the 'Business in the Community framework' and the 'GRI Guidelines', and demonstrates how we put our commitment into practice.
