Energy Secretary Ed Miliband has hailed the opening of a new £42m factory in Scarborough which is due to play a key role in reducing the nation’s carbon emissions
London (UK), September 8, 2025 – Schneider Electric, the leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, has officially opened its new state-of-the-art smart plant in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, with full site commissioning targeted by year end.
With Britain’s electricity needs expected to increase up to 40% by 2035, the plant is designed for long-term growth, producing the critical electrical equipment needed as the UK moves to cleaner energy.
The new facility will also significantly boost the EV charging network in and around Scarborough. An additional 30 EV chargers will be hosted on site, increasing local EV charging infrastructure by more than 110%[1] and accelerating the transition to electric fleets.
