SSE's Solar and Battery team is joining SSE Renewables to progress the delivery of its near 2GW pipeline of projects in the UK and Ireland, and expand into Europe to pursue new development opportunities.

Until now SSE Solar and Battery had been incubated in SSE plc’s Enterprise division. Now its 100-person team will bring their grid-scale solar and battery expertise and associated 2GW project pipeline across to SSE Renewables. The move, which is with immediate effect, will further support the SSE Renewables strategy to lead the transition to a net zero future through the world-class development, construction and operation of renewable power assets.

Becoming part of SSE Renewables, which is already growing its presence internationally to deliver the green energy the world needs, will maximise opportunities for the Solar and Battery division to grow in scale. This will include an expanded remit covering the UK, Ireland and supporting expansion across Europe.
