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.[https://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/2760662/Grid-and-Lattice-form-utility-supergroup.html Grid and Lattice form utility supergroup] The Telegraph, 22 April 2002

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

In July 2005 National Grid Transco was renamed National Grid plc to provide 'a unifying identity across its operations'.{{cite web|url=https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1004315/000104746905017354/a2159301z6-k.htm|publisher= National Grid plc|title= SEC Filing|accessdate=11 April 2019}}

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