OTHER PROJECTS
The Dounreay to Beauly project is an upgrade and reinforcement of the existing electricity transmission network between Dounreay, Caithness and Beauly. The line was built in the late 1960s to transmit the energy generated by the now decommissioned Dounreay Nuclear Power Station to the south of Scotland.
Work to install a second set of conductors is progressing at three separate locations along the route.
Scottish Hydro Electric Transmission owns and maintains the 132kV and 275kV electricity transmission network in the north of Scotland, in some of the UK's most challenging terrain.
