Welcome to PowerWise!

At ScottishPower safety and environmental education is very important to us. We are committed to ensuring that young people understand the important role that electricity plays in every day life as well as the possible dangers. Our aim is to keep children safe by keeping them informed through a range of activities and games that will encourage children to learn about electricity in a fun environment. With this in mind our PowerWise site has information for:
