As the UK and Ireland's largest renewable electricity generator, SSE Energy Solutions is different as all its renewable electricity is sourced from SSE’s own UK wind and hydro assets. A unique company like SSE Energy Solutions needed a unique approach to their corporate social responsibility strategy, so they teamed up with Rewise Learning to launch the pioneering Climate Connect Education Programme. As part of this programme, Rewise created a digital Climate Connect Learning Hub for students and teachers, as well as rolling out a brand-new school engagement programme, connecting with young people in a fun, practical and informative way.
