Our Future

Building a better future, quicker for everyone really is at the heart of what we do.

It is important now more than ever that we continue to invest in projects and communities, support jobs and the supply chains across the UK that are critical for a strong economy today and for the years ahead.

Unlocking Net Zero

ScottishPower – the UK’s first 100% green energy company – today outlines 10 immediate steps to create jobs and investment that will drive the UK’s green recovery and deliver quick returns for the economy, people and communities.

The priorities and regulatory changes set out in UNLOCKING NET ZERO: 10 Practical Steps For A Green Recovery are focused on changes the Government could make to quickly boost private investment in the economy and create jobs. Most of these changes would come with minimal cost to the public purse.

Seize the moment: building a thriving, inclusive and resilient economy in the aftermath of COVID-19

The significant social and economic impact of the coronavirus crisis has elicited strong responses from governments across the world, with rescue packages totalling trillions. With many countries now slowly lifting restrictions, a growing focus for many governments will be to support the recovery and ensure societies and economies are better prepared to withstand future crises.

The recovery from the COVID-19 crisis offers a historical opportunity to address key public interest concerns and accelerate the transition to a low carbon and environmentally resilient economy.

Investing in the Green Recovery

As part of Scottishpower's commitment to investing in the UK's green economic recovery and contributing to meeting Net Zero targets, the company has signed two separate agreements to develop wind farms in central Scotland that could see investment of over £150 million and an additional new wind power capacity of 165MW, enough to power 100,000 homes.

Climate Change Youth Project Launch - Blog

The Giving Nature a Home team have been working in Glasgow for over six years; connecting children, families and community groups to create a city-wide wildlife garden and celebrating nature within Glasgow.

In March this year, we began the ‘Climate Change Youth Project’ working with young people from across Scotland to facilitate a series of climate change-themed youth events in Glasgow in the lead up to COP26; creating a platform for young people to raise their voices and to shape and influence these events.

Turbine installation complete on East Anglia ONE offshore windfarm

A total of 102 offshore wind turbines have been installed at the windfarm site, 43km off the Suffolk coast. Installation was undertaken by Siemens Gamesa using the Sea Installer and Sea Challenger vessels, operated by DEME.

All turbine components were pre-assembled and loaded out from Peel Ports Great Yarmouth, following ScottishPower Renewables’ £5 million co-investment in the port to prepare it for construction and marshalling activity. The components consist of 75-metre fibre glass blades, tower sections and nacelles (the head of the turbine), which have been on view along the Great Yarmouth seafront and skyline as the 90-metre-high towers were constructed on the quayside.
