In August 2024, RWE submitted a Scoping Report to the Scottish Governments Energy Consents Unit (ECU) to request a Scoping Opinion. The scoping request seeks consultee feedback on the development proposals, the environmental aspects that will be addressed in the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and the methodologies proposed to undertake these assessments. Importantly, The Highland Council and other consultees, including local Community Councils, have the opportunity to provide early comment and feedback. The Scoping Report can be viewed on the ECU website at www.energyconsents.scot using the search tab and then searching for ‘Ceislein’. Alternatively, you can search for the proposal using the following ECU reference number: ECU00005174.
We invite you to attend our forthcoming public consultation events, where you can view and comment on our proposal. Members of the project team will also be on hand to answer any questions you may have.
