Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks Distribution has announced a £950 million framework to invest in subsea cables across its network. The procurement is part of the distribution network operator's infrastructure upgrade programme in the United Kingdom. Details of the framework scope and timeline have not yet been disclosed.
Why it matters: A near billion pound subsea cable framework signals major grid reinforcement work that may create indirect opportunities for EV charging infrastructure, as stronger distribution networks are essential for supporting high power charge points in coastal and island communities.
