Seagreen Wind Energy Ltd (Seagreen) has today received consent from Angus Council to renew the extant Onshore Planning Permission in Principal (PPP).
The proposed works are identical to that already approved by existing permissions granted by Angus Council in 2013 and 2014 and are required to connect the Seagreen Alpha and Seagreen Bravo offshore windfarms to the national electricity transmission network (grid).
The application includes 19km of underground electricity transmission cables between Carnoustie and Tealing, a new substation/convertor station adjacent to the existing electricity substation at Tealing, along with access and ancillary works.
