Overview
SSE plc is a leading energy company in the UK and Ireland. It is a publicly traded company with its headquarters in Perth, Scotland. The origins of the company can be traced back to the North of Scotland Hydro-Electric Board, which was established in 1943 to provide hydro-electric power to the Scottish Highlands. In 1998, the company was privatized and renamed Scottish and Southern Energy plc. In 2010, it became known as SSE plc. SSE is one of the largest energy companies in the UK, with over 5 million customers and a workforce of around 11,000 employees. The company supplies electricity and gas to homes and businesses, as well as providing energy-related services such as boiler servicing and smart meter installation. The company has a strong commitment to renewable energy and has invested heavily in renewable projects, including wind farms and hydro-electric schemes. It is also involved in energy trading, electricity transmission, and distribution. SSE is consistently ranked as one of the top performers in the annual Customer Service Institute for Excellence (CSIE) benchmarking survey for UK energy companies. SSE is dedicated to promoting sustainable and responsible business practices, and is a member of various industry bodies and organizations, including the United Nations Global Compact and the Carbon Trust Standard. The company has also received recognition for its efforts in gender equality and diversity, winning awards such as the UK Business Award for Best Equality and Diversity Programme. In recent years, SSE has faced criticism for its high energy prices and its role in the UK energy market, with calls for more regulated prices and increased competition. The company has also faced challenges in the transition to renewable energy, with some of its projects being criticized for their environmental impact. Despite these challenges, SSE remains a major player in the UK energy market and continues to play a significant role in the country's transition to a low-carbon economy.
