Homes are still without power after Storm Amy
Scottish Daily Express
|October 07, 2025
ENGINEERS were last night still working to restore power to homes left without electricity following Storm Amy.
Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks (SSEN) said that, as of 5pm yesterday, some 4,900 homes were without power.
More than 83,000 properties have been reconnected since Friday.
Some 17,000 free hot meals have been served too.
As the cleanup work continued, most rail lines were able to run yesterday though some in the Highlands are still affected by storm damage.
The power network company said: "Today, several hundred engineers and tree-cutting specialists are once again working across the network to restore power to customers.
"A comprehensive welfare operation is also under way; our own staff and volunteers from the Red Cross are visiting our most vulnerable customers."
