SSE plc is one of Scotland’s key energy boards. It’s original incarnation was as the North of Scotland Hydro-Electric Board in the war years of the early 1940s, eventually merging with the Southern Electricity Board which was founded in the post-war 1940s.
One of the pivotal bodies establishing Scotland’s place as an energy producer, the modern SSE’s infrastructure is part of a lasting national legacy. A massive purchaser of electricity and gas, the company is mindful in sourcing much of its raw energy from domestic sources. Privatised in the late 1990s, the firm continues to be subject to public oversight.
Presently turning its attention to Scotland’s potential for renewable energy development, SSE plc today remains a vital part of the modern Scottish nation.
With almost ten million customers, SSE, headquartered in Reading, is one of the biggest utility/energy companies in the UK.
SSE is the umbrella name for a number of energy companies who operate throughout the UK, these include: Southern Electric, SWALEC and Atlantic Energy & Gas. Of these trading companies Southern Electric is by far the most famous brand. They compete against other energy companies to supply gas and electricity to homes in London and right across the South, South West and South East.
Southern Electric’s logo is two intertwined flames, one blue the other green. Given the big six energy companies – of which Southern Electric is one – recent poor customer service records you may have plenty of reason to phone them.
1) GENERATING ENERGY – Southern Electric generate most of their energy from coal (54%). They only generate 1% of their energy from nuclear sources. This is in stark contrast to EDF, who have nuclear plants across the country, and are building a new nuclear power plant at Hinckley Point: the Hinckley Point C nuclear power station.
2) RENEWABLE SOURCES – Despite their reliance on coal as a source of generating energy, the SSE group claim that they make more energy from wind and water than any other energy company in the British Isles. They are also building a street, the Greenwatt Way, which will be powered entirely by renewable energy. The Greenwatt way project, whose Twitter handle is @GreenWatt Way, consists of ten houses in Slough, Berkshire that produce zero carbon, and are lived in by Southern Electric staff.
3) THE REPUBLIC OF IRELAND – In 2008 Southern Electric expanded their wind farm industry by buying a wind farm in Ireland called Airtricity. Airtricity now trade under the Southern Electric brand and have adopted the blue and green flame logo, they boast 20% of the market in the Rebublic of Ireland and the North.
4) CABLES – Beneath our feet there are 49,626 km of Southern Electric cables. If these were to be placed in a row they would stretch 1/10 of the way to the moon. There are also 27,173 km of Southern Electric cables above ground.
5) MOBILES AND BROADBAND – Southern Electric have recently expanded their operations into the mobile and broadband industries. Their ‘talk anytime plus’ telephone package is £7 per month for all calls to landline telephones, but you will also have to pay line rental of £15 a month. This deal includes half price calls to mobile telephones.

The OFGEM (the UK energy company regulatory body) clampdown on the big 6 in response to the huge volume of customer complaints culminated in a 10.5 million pound fine for SSE – the parent company of Southern Electric – in 2013. The complaints against the big 6 energy companies, which peaked in 2011 with 4 million complaints against them, ranged from mis-selling to terrible customer service, especially over the phone.
The complaints which led to OFGEM fining Southern Electric 10.5 million pounds – a record fine imposed by OFGEM on a UK energy company – included:
Many of these problems were created because many of the sales staff were paid commission, which led to a focus on sales rather than service.

It's been a year now that Meghan Markle became a bonafide member of the Royal Family. Now an expert has revealed that Meghan Markle is the most beautiful female royal, beating Kate Middleton, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie.
Meghan Markle is more beautiful than Kate Middleton, according to a scientific study of Britain's A-list princesses. A mathematical method once used by ancient Greeks reveals the 38-year old American born beauty has a face even more perfect than Kate's, and any other British royal of her generation.
Prince Harry's wife was found to be 87.4 per cent accurate to the Golden Ratio of Beauty Phi.
Her eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, chin, jaw and facial shape were measured and came closest to the Greeks' idea of physical 'perfection'.
The Duchess of Cambridge, also 38, was beaten into second place with a rating of 86.8
