This information is as reported by the business, and responses are in their own words.
Standard payment terms
Standard payment terms are 60 days from receipt of invoice. 60 days is also the maximum contractual payment period. By negotiation or other exception some suppliers are paid on terms less than 60 days. EDF Energy operates a process of paying once or twice each week. This is balanced by paying early for some invoices and later for others. Over the supplier base and over time this averages out to zero days late, but does impact our late payment figures without early payments being reflected. There have been no changes to the standard payment terms during this reporting period. Disputed items percentage is a new metric, also dependent on notification of a dispute, this percentage could vary going forward.

EDF Energy Nuclear Generation Limited is registered for the production of electricity and operates within the wider EDF group in the UK. The group describes itself as Britain's biggest generator of zero carbon electricity, producing power from nuclear, wind and solar sources, and states it is playing a key role in nuclear developments such as Sizewell C and Hinkley Point C. This entity represents the nuclear generation arm of that group, contributing to the group's electricity output which is supplied to the National Grid. The wider EDF group also supplies electricity and gas to homes and businesses, though that supply activity sits alongside rather than within this specific generating company.
