EDF Energy Renewables Ltd have submitted a connection application for their proposed 210MW Clash Gour Wind Farm development, which is located approximately 12km south of Forres in Moray, Scotland. SSEN Transmission will construct a new substation containing two 275/132kV transformers to facilitate the connection to the 275kV system. We have also proposed to erect two new 275kV towers close to the existing Knocknagael – Blackhillock 275kV double circuit tower line, to facilitate the installation of 275kV tapings. These structures will include down droppers connecting onto new 275kV switchgear located within the substation compound at the Clash Gour 275/132kV Substation. The aim of the project is to enable renewable energy to connect to our transmission network. For more information about our project please visit our project website by clicking here.
