BEAMA launches UK Electricity Products Supply Chain Council T
he UK Electricity Products Supply Chain Council was launched by BEAMA on 7 September to facilitate cross industry and government collaboration on inward investment for UK energy supply chains.
With membership from across the energy and contracting sector and support from UK Government, the Council is a platform for the supply chain of electrical equipment for the electricity transmission and distribution networks, and end use energy products market.
Never has it been more urgent to ensure the resilience of the UK energy sector, and with manufacturing capacity for key products set to increase tenfold to meet demands for Net Zero delivery, we need collaboration and engagement with the new leadership in government to open pipelines of investment to secure the timely and cost-effective supply of equipment into the market.

BEAMA CEO Dr Howard Porter stated: “This is an unprecedented era of change and with mounting pressures on the supply chain we need this level of collaboration across industry and with Government. We will lead this council to ensure the resilience of the electricity equipment supply chain.” Steve Bratt, CEO of ECA, said: “Increased collaboration between the electrical product supply chain and the businesses that design, install and maintain products and systems will deliver effective and sustainable solutions for the UK energy sector and the wider marketplace. It’s now vital that we increase the number of skilled installation contractors to ensure the successful deployment of electrical energy solutions at scale. This will provide major benefits to clients in the energy sector and beyond, and help
government and industry to meet the UK’s NZC targets.” Current members of the UK Electricity Products Supply Chain Council are BEAMA, BEAMA, The Energy Industries Council, Energy Networks Association (ENA), Energy UK, Renewable UK, British Standards Institute, Energy Systems Catapult, ECA (Electrical Contractors’ Association) and Department for International Trade.
