Is Your Business At Risk of Losing Power?

Check whether your postcode or business sites are at risk of losing electricity due to flooding at nearby electrical substations.

Check your Power Risk

Select how you'd like to check your risk

Risk scores are generated from modelled flood extent data and substation proximity analysis. Results are indicative only and do not constitute a professional risk assessment, engineering survey, or insurance evaluation.

Did you know that

Power outages often occur when electrical substations flood, not when individual buildings do. This means businesses outside flood zones can still be impacted through network-level failures.
