What we do

Who are we?

At SSE, our purpose is to responsibly provide the energy and related services needed now and in the future. We aim to be a leading provider of energy and related services in a low-carbon world, ensuring we deliver our goals in a reliable and sustainable way.

The energy services we provide are essential to the communities we operate in, however we are mindful that there is an added responsibility for us to conduct ourselves in a way that enhances value to the societies we are part of. As a responsibly-minded company, Sustainability is embedded throughout all of SSE's different business operations, along with our other core values of Safety, Service, Teamwork, Efficiency and Excellence.

SSE is a FTSE 35 company, employing over 20,000 people across the UK and Ireland.  We are proud to be a Living Wage accredited employer, and to be the only FTSE100 company to have retained the Fair Tax Mark since 2014.
