At SSEN Transmission, we are committed to supporting the communities in the north of Scotland where we operate, both now and in the future. As part of our ongoing efforts to make a difference and have a positive impact on local communities, we are proud to offer volunteering days to local groups and charities, particularly in the areas that host our electricity infrastructure or where our proposed projects are located. This commitment aligns with our broader Sustainability Strategy, which aims to deliver a network for net zero in a just and sustainable way, and to leave a legacy of thriving people and places.
