Transport is the largest contributor to the UK’s carbon emissions and significant work is needed to reduce this.
As the owner and operator of the transmission network, National Grid is poised to help drive the transition to cleaner transport in the UK.
Our work in Bramley which is reinforcing the electrification of the rail system, is a critical part of this.
Project overview
To support Network Rail to reinforce, future-proof, and decarbonise its electrical network, in 2022, National Grid began work to install a Supergrid transformer at Bramley substation and connect it to a new trackside feeder station at Holly Cross via underground electricity cables.
The feeder station is now connected and the work completed, except for some minor reinstatement works on the edge of the fields where the cables have been installed. This work will be undertaken in Spring 2025.
