Bord Gáis Energy

Bord Gáis Energy Limited (BGE) is a utility company that supplies natural gas, electricity and home energy services to customers in Ireland. BGE has been in operation in some form since 1976, and supplies over 750,000 customers with energy in Ireland. Formerly part of Bord Gáis Éireann, the vertically-integrated natural gas monopoly, since mid-2014 BGE is part of the British Centrica plc Group. BGE's offices are in Dublin and Cork, but it provides services nationwide. The Irish language "Bord Gáis" translates as "Gas Board", although it is now a private company limited by shares and part of Centrica plc, which also owns British Gas.
