Project updates
These are the latest project updates for Keith Greener Grid Park- Energy Storage
Latest news
We are pleased to be reconnecting with residents and organisation around our proposed revised plans.
We are hosting two public drop-in events for Keith Greener Grid Park Energy Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) at Longmore Community Centre on Wednesday 27 March and Thursday 25 April, between 3.30pm - 7.30pm.
This will give local people the opportunity to meet the team, view our plans, and leave their comments. This has been advertised through a letter sent to nearby residents.
We would like to thank all residents, organisations and other interested groups who took the time to attend the public exhibition for our proposed Keith Greener Grid Park Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), located next to the existing Keith Greener Grid Park.
The physical exhibition was held on Thursday, 3rd November 2022 at Longmore Community Centre, while the virtual exhibition ran on our dedicated project website from Thursday, 03 November 2022 till 01 December 2022.
The exhibition was well attended and provided opportunities for residents and other interested parties to interact with the project team. Attendees were able to ask questions, provide valuable feedback and review visualisations and other information about the project. The overall tone was very positive, and we were grateful to receive such useful feedback as we did.
The online exhibition material can be viewed here.
We will be writing to all those who provided comments and those that requested to receive project updates over the coming weeks. Please note that if you returned one of our freepost reply cards and did not tick the ‘keep me updated’ box, we are unable to respond directly due to GDPR legislation.
We will now proceed to submit a Planning Application to Moray Council. When the application is submitted the community will have a formal opportunity to comment on the plans as part of the statutory consultation process.
