Decision

Beauly-Denny is an electricity transmission project to upgrade the capacity of the key strategic line between Beauly in the north of Scotland and Denny in central Scotland. The project has been delayed by a public enquiry and subject to additional consenting requirements by both local councils and the Scottish government. In November 2015 the project was energised ahead of final reinstatement works due to be complete in the autumn of 2016.

SHE Transmission expects to overspend by £62.1m on its part of the project. This consultation sets out our proposal that only £26.9m of this additional expenditure meets the criteria to be recovered through revenue allowances during construction and the five-year post-construction period.
