FLEX O&M: Our 21st Gas Peaking Site is Live 

We’re proud to announce the launch of our 21st natural gas peaking site - a key milestone in our commitment to delivering reliable, flexible energy to the UK grid.

These engines are ready to deliver fast, responsive power when the grid needs it most. 

As the UK accelerates toward net zero, renewables are leading the way - but their variability means backup power is more critical than ever. That’s where gas peaking comes in. 

These high-efficiency plants don’t run continuously - but during peak demand or when renewable output dips, they provide essential flexibility, grid stability, and energy security. In doing so, they enable more wind and solar to be deployed across the country. 

Gas peaking plays a vital bridging role in helping the UK decarbonise safely, sustainably, and with confidence. 

 A big thank you to our teams, partners, and stakeholders who brought this project to life.
