In March 2025, the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero commissioned the North Hyde substation review, an independent report delivered by the National Energy System Operator. The report was commissioned following a large fire breaking out at the substation, disrupting power supply to over 70,000 customers including Heathrow airport. While power was restored quickly, there were significant secondary impacts to the aviation sector due to the associated closure of Heathrow airport. NESO’s interim report was published in May 2025, and the final report has now been completed and published on NESO’s website.
