As Storm Darragh swept across the region at the weekend with winds of up to 75mph, the IUS Overhead Line (OHL) Team was on the frontlines, stepping up to support Northern Powergrid in their response. 🌲⚡

Deployment Highlights:

Saturday (7 Dec): We rallied to areas around Durham and Darlington, tackling damage caused by storm conditions and fallen trees. Thousands of Northern Powergrid customers had their supplies restored through our teams who worked hard into the early hours.

Sunday (8 Dec): Teams were redeployed to the harder-hit North Yorkshire region, addressing multiple LV and HV pole faults and worked into the night.

Monday-Wednesday: From Kirkbymoorside to Scarborough, our teams safely worked around the clock to help restore supplies for customers.

A big Thank You to our dedicated OHL team...

💬Ben Stokoe, Head of Operations: “Thank you and well done to everyone in the OHL team, both direct and subcontract. Your hard work and dedication in these extremely difficult circumstances are truly appreciated.”

💬Reece Johnstone, OHL Operations Manager: “The overhead linesmen, plant operatives, and back-office staff have demonstrated exceptional dedication. Your efforts are what make restoring supplies to affected customers possible. Well done to everyone involved!”
