Standards of service

Customers suffer an interruption to their gas supply once in every 42 years, on average, and when things to go wrong, we put them right quickly and efficiently.

We’re measured against a range of criteria including the quality of our reinstatement work, the speed of our response to gas emergencies and how quickly we resolve a complaint. Our payments are linked directly to our performance so we have to deliver consistently high standards or face penalties.  Find out more about our Standards of Service.

Did you know?

Since our formation in 2005, we’ve been leading the way as one of the most cost efficient of the UK’s eight Gas Distribution Networks (GDNs).

How we’re regulated

Known as RIIO (Revenue = Incentives + Innovation + Outputs), the contract requires us to meet stretching performacne targets, with financial incentives for good performance, or penalties for falling short.

Ofgem’s criteria

Every year, we’re measured against 51 separate criteria, covering safety, reliability, customer service, environment, gas connections and social obligations. It’s a rigorous process that keeps us on our toes, and ensure our customers receive a great service.
