Centrica’s History
Centrica was demerged from the former British Gas plc in February 1997. This Group of energy related companies includes British Gas – the nation’s leading energy supplier. In addition, Centrica Energy and Centrica Storage source and store energy supplies in order to support the customers of businesses within the Group. Despite the competitive energy market conditions, British Gas remains the largest residential supplier of gas and electricity in the UK.
