Why we do it

UK electricity demand is set to increase like never before, growing by 50% by 2035 and 100% by 2050. This growth is driven by:

Electrification of heat across residential and commercial property

Increasing demand for data, driven by Cloud Computing and AI

Electrification of transport and commercial fleets

More renewables need to be connected… and to support the renewables, we need more batteries.

Increasing demand for large-scale commercial electricity

We’re here to make sure the megawatts needed to meet these demands get connected in the most sustainable and straightforward way possible.
