We are holding the first of two rounds of statutory pre-application consultation (PAC) events for our proposed new substation and convertor station on Arnish Moor. The pre-application process is a key first step in the Town and Country planning process for national planning applications.

As part of the investment, a new 400kV substation and convertor station has been proposed to form the Lewis Hub located on Arnish Moor. The Lewis Hub will be connected to a new convertor station at Fanellan, near Beauly on the Scottish mainland by approximately 80km of underground and 80km of subsea HVDC cable. From the land fall of the subsea cable at Arnish Point, there will be a 3-4km long section of underground cable to the Lewis Hub.

At these events we will be sharing the new proposed site location, layout details and visualisations as well as information about the connections into the proposed Arnish Moor site. The project teams will be available to answer questions and discuss our proposals to which we are seeking and welcome feedback.

SSEN Transmission would like to invite you to attend our Feedback Event
