Glen Earrach Energy (GEE) says its 2GW pumped storage hydro scheme would be one of the UK’s largest and most efficient energy storage schemes. Located on the Balmacaan Estate, it would pump water between Loch Ness and Loch nam Breac Dearga on its northern side. “Highlands Rewilding have also identified freshwater lampreys, where Grotaig Burn meets Loch Ness, but these rare fish were not found by the Glen Earrach surveys. A spokesperson for Glen Earrach Energy (GEE) robustly defended the scheme and its environmental modellings in the face of Highlands Rewilding’s objection. Glen Earrach is our contribution to that mission, protecting what is precious while building what the future demands.
