SSE Renewables has appointed Robert Bryce as Director of Hydro, adding him to its Executive Committee. Bryce will oversee the company’s Hydro fleet in Scotland and lead key growth projects, including major developments at Coire Glas and Loch Fearna. He joined SSE Renewables in 2022 after 11 years at Siemens Gamesa and has recently led the Offshore Wind Asset Management team.

Heather Donald has also been appointed to the Executive Committee as Director of Onshore Wind, Solar, and Battery (GB & Ireland). Donald will be responsible for the company’s operations and growth across these technologies in its home markets, managing a 2GW operational portfolio and a secured pipeline of around 4GW. She previously oversaw the development and construction of SSE Renewables’ onshore wind pipeline in GB and Ireland.

SSE Renewables Managing Director Stephen Wheeler praised the appointments, saying, “Heather and Robert are already key members of our senior leadership team, and they both bring extensive experience and expertise with them to our Renewables Executive Committee. I’m looking forward to working with them to deliver on our ambitious plans across our onshore technologies in GB and Ireland. As we continue to expand our pipeline and international footprint, Heather and Robert will ensure we’re setting our Onshore Wind, Solar, Battery, and Hydro teams up for continued success in our home markets.”
