Perth -based SSEN has announced that an additional £3.5 million in funding will aid network and community resilience to protect households from future storms.
The national energy provider added that “key improvements” have already been made to core customer and public communications processes following Storm Arwen in November.
In addition to the £4.8m in enhanced compensation already provided, SSEN has ring-fenced £1.8m for local authorities in the most affected regions, adding to the £500,000 boost to its Resilient Communities Fund, to be awarded this summer.
