Project Updates


September 2025

In response to comments on the S36 Application, made by Statutory Consultees, ESB has prepared and submitted Additional Information. A summary of the consultation responses to application ECU00002224 and the Applicant’s response is included within each technical chapter of the AI Report. 

There have been no changes to the layout of the Proposed Development 

This Additional Information is intended to supplement, and where specified, replace sections of information already provided in the EIA Report, and therefore should be read alongside the EIA Report. 

The Additional Information is available to view on the ECU website via this link: Scottish Government - Energy Consents Unit - Application Details

Hard copies are also available for viewing at:
