Spittal to Loch Buidhe to Beaully OHL Connection
The Spittal to Loch Buidhe to Beaully OHL Connection is proposed to support the continued growth in onshore and offshore renewables across the north of Scotland, supporting the country’s drive towards Net Zero.
The proposed development comprises the installation and operation of over 170 km of new double circuit 400 kV OHL, in combination with relevant diversion works, forestry felling and creation of access tracks to facilitate construction.
The alignment extends between the proposed Banniskirk, Carnaig and Fanellan Substations, within The Highland Council planning authority area.
TGP Landscape Architects were appointed by ERM to form part of the Landscape Team for the Landscape and Visual Impact Assesment of the proposed development. As part of this process TGP undertook LVIA for three separate sections of the proposed OHL Connection, located at the southern section of the alignment between Loch Buidhe and Beauly.
