Hydro pipeline in the making
Pipe sections made from glass reinforced plastic on the line of the pipe to carry water to the power house on the shore of Loch Laggan. The hill in the background is Meall a Chrotha.
Pattack Hydro scheme :: NN5486
In 2016 construction began on a 9MW hydroelectric scheme on the River Pattack in the Ardverikie Estate, Laggan. A dam will create a reservoir from which a buried pipeline will take water down to a powerhouse on the shore of Loch Laggan. The dam top is at 406m above Ordnance datum, limiting the reservoir extent to about 500m upstream.
