Our purpose is to enable a zero carbon, lower cost energy future
Will Gardiner, Drax Group CEO
“Energy security, affordability, and the need to decarbonise economies – the energy trilemma – have remained important global themes. Our purpose – to enable a zero carbon, lower cost energy future – is well aligned with these competing priorities and we are committed to playing our part in delivering a Just Transition.”
Our business model and strategy address key trends in global energy:
