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. This will help to reduce generation constraints and losses on the network, and facilitate the connection of additional renewable generation.

The Beauly-Denny project is covered by the Transmission Investment for Renewable Generation (TIRG) mechanism. The TIRG mechanism requires the project to be reviewed at the end of construction before setting the project’s revenue allowance for the five years following construction.

This letter provides an update to relevant stakeholders on the timing and process that will be followed for the post-construction review of SHE Transmission’s element of the project, and also confirms that we will consider SHE Transmission’s request for additional funding as part of this process.
