SSE’s output of electricity from its own renewable sources across the UK and Ireland was 10% lower than planned for the nine months to 31 December 2022.
The Perth-headquartered energy group's third quarter trading update explained that it was impacted by unseasonably calm and dry weather, along with delays to the Seagreen offshore wind project, which is still expected to complete this summer.
Meanwhile, output of electricity from SSE’s gas-fired generation plant was 27% higher than the same period last year.
