Lattice Group plc was a leading British gas transmission business. It was listed on the London Stock Exchange and was a constituent of the FTSE 100 Index.

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]
