Meet the Buyer - Fort Augustus

As Omexom brings major investment to Fort Augustus, our goal is to ensure local participation, employment, and supply chain engagement.

If you’re a local business, supplier, skilled tradesperson, or jobseeker, this event is your chance to meet our team, ask questions, and explore how your business or skills can contribute to and benefit from a transformative energy project.

The Fort Augustus substation is a critical node in SSEN Transmission’s Pathway to 2030 programme, and we'll be based in the area for several years as we work to strengthen the electricity network in the Highlands and support Scotland's transition to net zero.

Connect with our procurement, project and recruitment leaders to discover contract opportunities, supply frameworks, partnerships and job requirements. This drop-in event is also an opportunity to understand how we'll work with local schools, colleges and service providers to build connections that ensure long-term economic benefits for the region.
