The UK - SSE looks forward to working with ministers and officials to turn the Prime Minister's ambition into action.

SSE has announced that the UK Prime Minister has set out a plan to deal with the current energy crisis. They welcomed the Prime Minister's plan.

SSE Chief Executive, Alistair Phillips-Davies said:

"We have had constructive discussions with the government and welcome the action in the Prime Minister's energy plan.

At SSE, we have been advocating a twin-track approach: dealing with the immediate affordability crisis while also figuring out how to get cheaper, cleaner and more secure homegrown energy even faster.

This crisis has been caused by the spiraling costs of imported gas and while the government's immediate support package will tackle the short-term symptoms, our role is to help provide longer-term solutions."

According to SSE, the group is investing in profits more than it earns with a program that could see it deliver 20% of both the UK's offshore wind target and investment in vital electricity networks.
