A proposed 400 kV upgrade to the existing 132 kV transmission network, seen as key to future expansion[ was held up in planning[15] for three years. There was vocal opposition from some sectors[16] and strong support from other sectors. Objections were principally on the basis of the visual impact of the pylons running through the edge of the Cairngorms National Park. 53km of the 132kV line inside the park was taken down and not replaced. The 220 km circuit will run from Beauly, west of Inverness to Denny, west of Falkirk near Edinburgh. In 2008, the first major independent study associated with the Scottish Government’s renewable energy targets concluded that the upgrade of the Beauly-Denny power line will be a key to future development. In January 2010, the Scottish Government approved the upgrade to the Beauly to Denny transmission line, [20] which was energized by Christmas 2015
