Stornoway GSP Re-Development - Information Event

We are holding an information session for our proposed re-development of the Stornoway Grid Supply Point (GSP).

This is a pre-cursor to our pre-application process later in 2026 which is a key first step in the Town and Country planning process for national planning applications.

You are invited to attend our drop-in event:

Thursday 26 February 2026, 3-7pm

The Cabarfeidh Hotel, Manor Park, Perceval Road South, Stornoway HS1 2EU

To support the growth in renewable energy developments across the North of Scotland and Islands, which are supporting the drive towards Net Zero, investment in our network infrastructure is needed to connect this power and transport it to areas of demand. The Stornoway Grid Supply Point (GSP) Upgrade Project aims to connect increased generation on the SSEN Distribution network to the wider GB Transmission System. To ensure there is sufficient capacity on the SSEN Transmission Network for this future generation a re-development of the Stornoway GSP is required.

The project teams will be in attendance, available to answer questions and discuss our proposals to which we are seeking and welcome feedback.

If you have further questions, please contact the project team via our Community Liaison Manager on kevin.morrison@sse.com
