About Scottish Power

Company Overview

ScottishPower Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Iberdrola

Glasgow, Scotland, United Kingdom

1990

Approximately 5,000 employees (source: linkedin.com). Revenue figures for 2023 are not disclosed, but Iberdrola has committed £24 billion in UK investments by 2028, including through ScottishPower (source: energyadvicehub.org).

What They Do

ScottishPower is a vertically integrated energy company that operates as the distribution network operator for Central and Southern Scotland, Merseyside, North Wales, and parts of Cheshire and Shropshire. The company supplies electricity and gas to homes and businesses across the United Kingdom and generates power for the grid (source: wikipedia.org). Its core technology focus includes wind energy, solar power, grid upgrades, battery storage, and low-carbon hydrogen, having transitioned to generating 100% green electricity by divesting its coal and gas assets (source: wikipedia.org). ScottishPower's product offerings encompass renewable generation from 38 onshore wind farms and over 40 operational sites producing more than 3 GW of total capacity, alongside services like smart grids, EV charging, heat pumps, and solar solutions for businesses (source: scottishpower.co.uk). The company targets UK residential customers, commercial businesses, and wholesale energy trading, leveraging its position as part of Iberdrola, a world leader in wind energy (source: energybrokers.co.uk).

Projects & Track Record

ScottishPower has completed several notable projects, including the Whitelee onshore wind farm, which is Europe's largest at 539 MW, featuring 215 turbines and a 50 MW battery (source: wikipedia.org). The company also repowered Scotland's first commercial wind farm, Hagshaw Hill, which was brought back online in November 2025 to increase output and community benefits (source: scottishpowerrenewables.com). Ongoing major projects include the East Anglia ONE and East Anglia THREE offshore wind farms, as well as the Wikinger offshore project in the German Baltic Sea (source: cisco.com). ScottishPower Renewables manages Iberdrola's UK portfolio, which exceeds 2,000 MW from 40 wind farms, with plans for further solar and hydrogen expansion (source: windenergyireland.com).

Recent Developments

In recent years, ScottishPower secured £1.35 billion for seven grid upgrades, including subsea cables and substations, to enhance the transport of Scottish wind power southward (source: energyadvicehub.org). Iberdrola announced a significant £24 billion investment in the UK by 2028, focusing on renewables and grid resilience (source: energyadvicehub.org). Additionally, ScottishPower Renewables is set to invest nearly £3 billion in offshore and onshore wind and solar projects from 2023 to 2025 (source: cisco.com). In the hydrogen sector, Iberdrola launched a unit in September 2023, targeting 600 MW by 2025 and 5 GW by 2030, with ScottishPower's Green Hydrogen for Scotland project featuring a 10 MW electrolyser (source: energybrokers.co.uk).

Working There

ScottishPower offers a variety of roles across renewables development and operations, energy networks, generation, and support functions such as energy management and IT/security (source: scottishpowerrenewables.com). The company primarily hires at its Glasgow headquarters, with operations linked to UK-wide wind farms and offshore sites in East Anglia and the Southern North Sea (source: windenergyireland.com). Company culture emphasizes innovation in renewables and community engagement, as evidenced by initiatives like the MachairWind feedback phase and partnerships with local organizations (source: scottishpower.co.uk). While specific benefits are not detailed, the firm invests heavily in green initiatives and supports employee-driven net-zero transitions for business clients (source: scottishpower.com).
