Beauly and her surrounding areas have become, in the words of SSEN, ‘an unfortunate pinch point’ and ‘a spaghetti junction’ of industrial hardware to transmit power mainly from the wind turbines recklessly approved in remote locations far away from grid connections and from where the power is needed.
The campaign group, COMMUNITIES B4 POWER COMPANIES was formed in response to the scale of devastation unleashed upon communities along SSEN’s proposed transmission lines. We aim to stop this annihilation of our environment by a wealthy multinational whose only priority is eye watering profits for their shareholders.
Communities, individuals, you and us - we are all too often ignored by these developers. They purport to care about the environment and wildlife and say they will ‘mitigate’ impacts. But where is the care for those people who end up targeted and affected by their devastating plans?
COMMUNITIES B4 POWER COMPANIES will speak out for and with the people and our voices will be heard.
WE WILL NOT BE SSEN’S COLLATERAL DAMAGE!

Fanellan Substation
Please Object
Please help by adding your objection to the proposed Fanellan substation. Let’s leave the Highland Council in no doubt about the strength of feeling against this outrageous proposal!
Stopping the substation will stop the pylon lines and in turn stop the windfarms.
Our objection tool is easy to use, just choose the categories that most resonate with you and please do add your own personal comments and feelings if you wish. To get started, click the link below.
Alternatively, you can email your objection to Highland Council at: eplanning@highland.gov.uk, or by writing to The Head of Planning and Building Standards, ePlanning Centre, The Highland Council, Glenurquhart Road, Inverness IV3 5NX. Please quote the planning application reference number 25/00826/FUL in your correspondence.
