History

edit

The Company was established in 2000 when BG Group demerged its UK gas transmission business, formerly known as Transco, and named it Lattice Group.[2]

In October 2002 Lattice Group merged with National Grid plc to form National Grid Transco.[2]

In July 2005 National Grid Transco was renamed National Grid plc to provide 'a unifying identity across its operations'.[3]

Operations

edit

As well as the UK gas transmission network, Lattice Group owned a telecoms business known as 186k.[1]
