Creating opportunities and accessibility for green commuting Proactively reducing our environmental impact and reducing local congestion by promoting and supporting Liftshare Providing a platform to generate ideas, create discussion, share experiences and thoughts for alternative travel with our online ‘Green commuter’ Yammer page Delivering additional benefits to our employees to purchase cycles and cycling equipment as well as sharing positive case studies National Grid 5

Creating opportunities and accessibility for green commuting Green commuter bays for Promoting travel by train Cycle hub for cycle occasional car use and bus maintenance. Charging bays for Providing shuttle buses Showers and lockers electric and hybrid to reduce car use available for green vehicles commuters National Grid 6

Biggest Impact National Grid 16

In 2050  Doubling of electricity demand, critical role for flexibility  Decarbonisation of land transport - all sales from 2035 being electric.  A near total decarbonisation of heat with heat pumps, heat networks and hydrogen. Gas demand is estimated to be at 68%  Offset residual emissions ideally through our own land National Grid | [Insert document title] | [Insert date] 17

What are we doing today? Low Carbon Heat Strategic Charging Network • • Trailing hydrogen projects 54 service stations • • 99.6% of drivers will always be Member of industry hydrogen group within 50 miles of rapid charging hub National Grid 18

What are we doing today? Sequestration Net Zero Industry • • Exploring offsetting options, Potentially setting up a CCUS partnership in the Humber. focused on our own land first. • • Want to understand different This would be 1 of 6 potential habitat options and link to hubs biodiversity National Grid 19
