  • The investment will focus on upgrading the electricity grid and expanding wind farm projects to support the UK's decarbonization goals.
  • The decision follows the UK government's approval of large solar projects, signaling a stable regulatory environment for green energy.
  • The investment includes significant projects like the Eastern Green Link 1, a new electricity superhighway connecting Scotland and England.
  • The announcement comes ahead of the UK's International Investment Summit, which aims to attract further global investments.
