Freedom is a trusted delivery partner to regulated Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) across the South of England, supporting the safe operation, renewal and expansion of electricity networks in some of the UK’s most densely populated and operationally complex regions.
Working in long‑term partnership with DNOs, we deliver a comprehensive range of regulated network services, spanning asset inspections, repairs and renewals across overhead lines, underground cables and substations. Our role is to ensure networks remain safe, resilient and capable of meeting growing demand driven by electrification, decarbonisation and population growth.
Across the South, we deliver overhead line refurbishment and renewal works, alongside LV overhead and underground cabling activities that support network reinforcement often in densely populated and complex urban environments.
We support DNO programmes covering 11kV, 33kV and 66kV wooden pole networks, delivering targeted inspection, reinforcement and replacement schemes that extend asset life while improving safety and reliability.
Our capabilities extend to substation construction, refurbishment and maintenance, including new‑build and renewal works up to 132kV. These activities are delivered alongside associated civils, cabling and integration works, providing DNOs with a joined‑up delivery model that reduces interfaces and programme risk.
A critical part of our regulated network support is rapid response. We provide call‑out capability to support DNOs during outages, severe weather events and unplanned incidents. Our experienced operational teams mobilise quickly to restore supply, carry out temporary or permanent repairs and support network recovery, often working in challenging conditions to protect customers and communities.

The strength of our regulated network delivery lies in our highly skilled workforce.
CareersOverhead line professionals are at the core of Freedom’s regulated network delivery, supporting inspection, maintenance, refurbishment and renewal of overhead assets across voltages from 11kV to 132kV. These roles include overhead line operatives and supervisors who work on wooden poles, steel structures and lattice towers, carrying out asset inspections, reinforcement works and full replacement programmes.
Cable jointers and underground network operatives play a critical role in maintaining and expanding DNO cable networks. Working across LV, 11kV, 33kV and higher‑voltage systems, these roles involve jointing, termination, fault repair and cable replacement on regulated assets.
Senior design engineers, clerks of works and project manager/senior authorised person (SAP) roles play a pivotal part in our support of regulated DNO networks projects. These specialists provide a range of technical leadership delivering compliant, buildable projects that align with DNO standards and long‑term network investment plans.
