Project Outline Murphy is currently working for National Grid in Yorkshire to upgrade and reinforce the high-voltage power network and reduce the national reliance on fossil fuels. This project includes implementing substantial protection and control changes at six different substations in the area including new changes to electronic equipment and the associated wiring. Our team are on track to update existing structures (installing a new gantry, circuit breaker and isolator at Osbaldwick station) and create entirely new structures (such as two double tee arrangements and two new substations). Yorkshire Green is the largest substation project awarded to Murphy to date. Collaborating and engaging with colleagues across the business, in areas including Plant and Applied Engineering, Murphy is helping the UK meet its 2028 net zero emissions, reduce its reliance on fossil fuels and contribute to lower energy bills in the long term, creating a safer, more sustainable future for the world. KEY FACTS The project is part of The Great Grid Upgrade, the largest overhaul of the electricity grid in generations Yorkshire Green is the largest substation project awarded to Murphy to date. Works spanning across nine different sites in North Yorkshire
