SSE publishes 2025/26 Climate Policy Engagement Review report

• SSE outlined its 2025/26 climate policy engagement, covering direct lobbying and trade-association activity against a 1.5°C Paris-aligned standard.
• The review found all 12 principal trade associations aligned overall with SSE’s five net-zero principles, with no material conflicts identified.
• Wind Energy Ireland was flagged as partially aligned on the carbon-price principle due to a lack of explicit advocacy, but remained aligned overall.
• Across other in-scope groups, UK Emissions Trading Group was rated partially aligned due to limited public evidence on Paris goals and a just transition.
• SSE reiterated policy priorities on UK clean power delivery, opposing zonal pricing in favor of reformed national pricing to reduce investment uncertainty.
