We have worked closely with other network operators, Government and the electricity regulator Ofgem to develop contingency plans that will ensure we continue to keep the lights on, maintain network resilience and maintain the health, safety and wellbeing of all of our colleagues and customers during this challenging time. I’d like to share them with you now.
Thanks to funding of more than £450,000 from the SP Energy Networks’ Green Economy Fund for nine new state-of-the-art electric vehicles, the charity "Food Train" has been able to expand its vital services to new regions across Scotland at a time when it’s particularly difficult for older vulnerable people to access shopping services.
ScottishPower Renewables has handed a wide range of contracts to companies across the East of England, reinforcing its commitment to working with local suppliers on East Anglia ONE. The developer has pledged to spend over £70 million with businesses across the region to support the development of the windfarm.
Given the vital role of the NHS during the COVID-19 pandemic, a comprehensive review of our infrastructure around 56 large NHS and private hospitals across central and southern Scotland, north-west England and North Wales has been undertaken.
As the nation navigates this pandemic, we couldn’t be prouder of our people and all they’re doing to keep power flowing for the millions of people our services are vital for.
We have provided £2,000 to supply essential items such as UHT milk, pasta, sugar, tinned meat and tinned vegetables, in addition to toiletries that the foodbank is providing to those in need throughout the coronavirus outbreak.
We are pleased to have been able to provide funding to support Age Connects North East Wales deliver shopping and prescription medication to the doorsteps of hundreds of elderly people across Flintshire and Wrexham during the COVID-19 outbreak.
Drawings, letters and messages from Glasgow’s children and young people will also be included in the parcels to remind those receiving them that they are not alone during the coronavirus outbreak.
If you see our teams working in your communities, rest assured they are working on critical activities to keep the power flowing to homes, hospitals and other vital services at this time.
All NHS workers will be eligible for the scheme, which has been launched to help them minimise the risks of contracting Covid-19 while travelling to and from work on public transport.
