Producing electricity has traditionally been a major source of emissions, but in the last ten years we’ve been on an incredible journey to connect renewable energy like solar and wind.
If you are considering installing large scale equipment to generate or store electricity, we’re here to help. This can include projects such as wind turbines, solar panels, hydrogen, batteries or combined heat and power units.
We understand planning projects of this nature takes considerable time and effort including securing land rights, gaining planning permission and ultimately securing a grid connection. Our highly regarded engineers are on hand to work with you to help your project come to fruition. We’ve also created a set of useful guides to help you with your planning.
Did you know, you can discover the capacity of our network in your local area by using our Distributed Generation mapping tool? It's a great way to see if our network is well suited for your connection.
