Cherry & White work closely with UK Power Networks on their critical infrastructure network across multiple contracts, which cover over 19 million people (8.3 million homes).
Together with our partners, we developed a cost-effective, reliable solution to replace outdated Vodafone Paknet Pads across the UKPN network. By integrating Paknet emulation onto a cellular router using UMTS/LTE networks, we seamlessly modernized their legacy SCADA equipment.

We have supplied critical infrastructure network solutions to Western Power Distribution since 2005, and a close working relationship continues today.
Among the numerous projects we’ve undertaken for WPD, one of our key responsibilities was to enhance the resilience and security of their existing fibre optic network. This was achieved through a meticulously managed, multi-stage implementation process of upgrading their PDH and SDH networks.
