It operates in partnership with National Grid, Essex and Hertfordshire County Councils and the Essex Wildlife Trust.

The substation, which helps to control the flow of electricity to the national grid, is located on the Essex, Hertfordshire County border, 8 miles from Bishops Stortford with easy access to the A10 and M11.

Pelham Centre for the Environment provides an ideal setting to explore and investigate the environment. A wide range of activities are continuually being developed for schools, special interest groups and the local community.

It is also part of the network of Hertfordshire Outdoors and Essex Outdoors centres. The teachers who work at the Daws Hall Centre also operate at Pelham.
