Great British Energy (shortened to GB Energy or GBE) is a British government-owned renewable energy investment body that was formed as part of the Labour Party's plans for energy policy. GBE will invest in renewable energy and own, manage and operate clean power projects. Proposals for the body were put forward by Labour in 2021 while in opposition, and the first steps to establish it were taken in late 2024 by the Starmer government.

Great British Energy was formally established by the Great British Energy Act 2025, receiving royal assent on 15 May 2025.
