History
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 (although in 2005 the merged entity reverted to the name National Grid plc).[2]
Operations
As well as the UK gas transmission network, Lattice Group owned a telecoms business known as 186k.[1]
