33kV overhead line Allt Teanga Hydro Pennyghael Isle of Mull
Approved on 8 April 2026
Council decision: Non-EIA
Proposal
This project comprises the construction of a new 33kV overhead line spur. The new line will consist of three poles (two single and one double pole), which will house our plant and equipment. The new overhead line will be installed using poles of a wooden variety and these will be approximately 10 metres in height. The total length of the overhead line spur will be 54m. From Pole 45 of the new spur we propose to lay approximately 50m of HV underground cable and 4 x 20m of LV underground cable to the point of connection. This will be classed as permitted development.
