Overview

National Grid is developing plans to build a new electricity substation (‘Uxbridge Moor’) on land bordering our existing substation in Iver.

This is needed to connect several customers to our electricity network to the west of London.

The national electricity network has recently seen a significant increase in demand for electricity. In the Iver area a large number of organisations have requested new power connections from National Grid, and as a regulated business, we have a legal obligation to meet these requests. The Uxbridge Moor substation will help us do that.

Thank you to those who have been part of our public consultation on the proposals, which closed on 6 October.  

We are reviewing and considering all the feedback we have received, which will help to shape our plans and the positive legacy we are able to leave for the community.  We are planning to submit our planning application towards the end of 2023, and which time the community feedback and our responses to it will be available to view as part of our Statement of Community Involvement submitted with the application.  In the meantime, if you wish to contact the team, please use the details at the bottom of this page.
