Storm Darragh

Find out how we performed during the biggest storm we have experienced in decades. 

Storm Darragh - Friday 6th - Friday 13th December

Storm Darragh severely impacted our network, with wind gusts of up to 96mph.

Our teams worked around the clock to reconnect power supplies and support our customers in our biggest ever restoration effort.

A record number of customers were impacted by the storm. We supplied generators and battery packs to vulnerable customers and provided hot food and drinks in the most impacted areas.

We’d like to thank customers for bearing with us as we worked tirelessly in challenging conditions to restore power.
