Learn about National Gas and Power’s renewable energy offerings. Fraser Bond advises UK property owners on choosing the right supplier for sustainability goals.

Introduction

Renewable energy is no longer a niche concern — it is now central to energy strategy, investment decisions, and property market appeal.
For property owners, landlords, and investors, choosing suppliers with strong renewable energy credentials is increasingly important for attracting tenants, meeting regulatory standards, and future-proofing assets.
In this guide, we explore National Gas and Power’s position on renewable energy, compare it to competitors, and outline what UK property owners need to know when considering renewable solutions.


Does National Gas and Power Offer Renewable Energy?

1. Renewable Energy Credentials

  • Limited Renewable Offering:
    National Gas and Power, at present, does not specialise in fully renewable or 100% green tariffs.

  • Electricity Source Mix:
    Their standard tariffs largely reflect the UK’s broader energy grid mix, which, while improving annually, is still only partly renewable.

  • No Certified Green Tariffs:
    Unlike suppliers such as Octopus Energy or So Energy, National Gas and Power does not offer certified green or carbon-neutral tariffs that directly support renewable energy generation.

2. Compliance with UK Energy Mix

By default, National Gas and Power’s electricity supply reflects the UK’s growing shift toward renewables:

  • As of 2025, the UK’s grid energy mix includes around 45–50% renewable sources (wind, solar, hydro).

  • Therefore, even standard energy supply is becoming greener, but specific supplier-driven green initiatives are limited at National Gas and Power.


Why Renewable Energy Matters for Property Owners

Benefit Impact
Tenant Attraction Eco-conscious tenants prefer sustainable homes.
Regulatory Compliance Supports achieving EPC (Energy Performance Certificate) targets.
Investment Value Protection Green buildings retain stronger market value over time.
Operational Savings Energy-efficient properties can reduce operational costs over the long term.
