Bunavoneader Hydro Update

Since we last posted about the scheme, after a long and thorough tendering process, we have appointed Ross-shire Engineering, from Muir of Ord to progress the build of the scheme. They have plenty of experience delivering hydro schemes and have electrical, mechanical, civil engineering and hydro skills -all in house.We are waiting on SEPA to grant the CAR licence, but most importantly for the finance package to be completed. We have held discussions with the banks, and hope to have a firm offer on the table any day now. There is still a gap to fill, as the banks will only go to 85% of the costs. That’s now the priority.

So we just have to finalise the finance, and then we can start building !
