About Transmission Investment:

Founded in 2011, Transmission Investment manages one of the largest offshore electricity transmission portfolios globally, connecting over 4,000MW of offshore wind from eleven GB wind farms and a grid stability synchronous compensator at Blackhillock, Scotland. It is also developing the 700MW interconnector (LirIC) between Northern Ireland and Scotland, a 1250MW interconnector to France and preparing to participate in the tender processes for onshore transmission projects as the company continues to build a significant portfolio of power assets. In 2025, Transmission Investment was acquired by TAQA, one of the largest listed integrated utility companies in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (ADX: TAQA), as part of its international growth strategy while contributing to the UK’s 2050 Net Zero programme and TAQA’s wider sustainability ambitions

Our team now numbers 50+ professionals with deep experience in development, engineering, commercial strategy, project finance, asset management and regulation. We combine technical excellence with a pragmatic, delivery-focused mindset — all within a friendly, collaborative culture.
