ScottishPower Manweb logo
MANWEB (Merseyside And North Wales Electricity Board) was the regional electricity supplier and distributor for Merseyside, North Wales and (despite the name) parts of Cheshire. It is now part of Scottish Power.
It was originally created in 1947 as the nationalised Merseyside and North Wales Electricity Board in the Electricity Act 1947 but was privatised in 1990 to become Manweb plc.
It was purchased by Scottish Power in 1995, and subsequently become SP Manweb plc. The Manweb name continued to be used alongside the Scottish Power logo on publications up until mid-2007 when this practice was dropped, however the Merseyside and North Wales subsidiary of Scottish Power continues to be known as ScottishPower Manweb.
