Accessibility Statement
EDF Energy is committed to making this website accessible to all users, regardless of circumstances. We are actively working to increase the accessibility and usability of the site. If you have any questions or suggestions regarding the accessibility of this site, or if you have difficulty using any part of it, please contact us.
What are we doing?
To help us make the EDF Energy website a positive place for everyone, we’ve been using the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities, and user friendly for everyone.
The guidelines have three levels of accessibility (A, AA and AAA). We’ve chosen Level AA as the target for our website.
How are we doing?
We’re working hard to achieve our goal of Level AA accessibility, but we realise there are some areas that still need improving. The following information explains what we’re doing to make that happen.

We are working to get this implemented for all our videos on our site
How do I make the text bigger so that it is easier for me to read?
Some users might find screen text easier to read by increasing the size at which text is displayed. To do this you should simply adjust your browser’s settings.
- Using Internet Explorer, go to View > Text size > and select the size you want.
- Using Firefox, go to the View menu, select Zoom and then either zoom in Ctrl + +, Zoom out Ctrl + – or Reset Ctrl + 0
- Using Google Chrome, click the menu icon (three horizontal lines) and then click the + or – on the same line as the word Zoom
You can also hold down CTRL and use the mouse wheel at the same time to change the text size for all the browsers above.
What are PDFs and how do I read them?
PDF stands for Portable Document File. You need a plug-in called Adobe Acrobat Reader to view these files which you can download for free from Adobe’s website.
Users who have concerns about accessibility should visit Adobe’s accessibility website. Recent versions of Acrobat Reader have a Read Out Loud facility, which can be found under the View menu.
