“I worked with Grant in his role as Programme Director at Wipro when we delivered one of the largest business transformation programmes undertaken in the energy sector. The programme itself was complex and highly challenging, a first in the market and globally in terms of technology implementation and business transformation, bringing together some of the most experienced energy and utilities professionals from Turkey and abroad. Grant was instrumental in driving the success of the programme. His engagement with the client, internal stakeholders, workstream leaders, regulators and senior management across companies, departments and disciplines was a key enabler in orchestrating success. His depth of experience brought invaluable insights and recommendations which helped the stakeholders in understanding complex issues, solving problems and making major decisions which contributed towards success, especially with extremely tight deadlines. Grant's leadership was key to our success. As a leader he believes in empowering and supporting people and the value of building a high performance culture. His ability to mentor, coach, guide and develop the teams was an added value factor for both our own organisation and our client. He left a positive legacy which has enabled clients to achieve success in competitive, regulated markets, and brought sustainable value to clients.”

EU legislation is driving the coming together of energy markets across Europe with the aim of creating a fully liberalised internal electricity market including a new wholesale market on the island of Ireland.
The new wholesale market will be known as the Integrated Single Electricity Market (I-SEM). As well as building on the current SEM, the I-SEM will deliver increased levels of competition which should help put a downward pressure on prices as well as encouraging greater levels of security of supply and transparency.
SSE is an FTSE100 listed company and one of the largest utilities in the UK; it is also one of the largest participants in the Irish electricity market accounting for some 17% of the electricity & gas market in Ireland, and is SSE the largest single generator of wind power in the SEM.
Based on the EU requirement to align trading and settlements arrangements with the rest of Europe, SSE is engaged on their single most important regulatory programme of work to ensure their ability to operate under the new market arrangements.
Wipro was engaged as the systems integrator and consultants to undertake the design and implementation process for the new market and when completed will ensure SSE is ready to participate in I-SEM market operations from day 1. -
