Electricity network operatorSSEN Distribution (North Scotland)NESO licence area boundaries

Dundee is served by SSEN Distribution, the electricity network operator for North Scotland. A home charger has to be registered with the network operator. Your installer normally does this: smaller systems are notified after installation, and larger ones need approval before work starts. Dundee is close to the edge of the North Scotland area, so some homes may be on a neighbouring network.
