We face the prospect of more than 10 years of non stop construction

2000

2023

Who Are We?

STIG is an acronym for Stop Tealing Industrialisation Group. STIG has been newly formed by a group of Tealing residents who are angered and concerned about the impending decimation of our rural lifestyle.

Our Objection

We are not objecting to renewable energy or Net Zero, but we are objecting to the destructive way it is being delivered, that will result in the loss of large areas of agricultural land and destroy much of Scotland’s natural beauty.

Why should you care?

A third sub station is proposed, 500m from the original Tealing substation, which itself was enlarged by the construction of the SeaGreen substation (shown below). This information has been released before the SeaGreen and Tealing substation construction has even finished. This development will dwarf the existing site, covering 50 acres of prime agricultural land, bringing the total industrialised area to nearly 90 acres.

SSEN have been misleading the people of Tealing to believe that our only impact would be the extension of the existing substation to 275Kv.

With these 2 substations comes the opportunity for a gold rush of battery storage plants and solar farms in our neighbouring green fields and this has already begun.

Let’s not forget the enormous super pylons towering overhead to transport all this electricity. SSEN apparently know the route but are not letting the public know because of the obvious objections.

The impact on local people, their livelihoods and their house prices is ignored.

What Can You Do?

These plans are at a very early stage and the planning application has not yet been submitted. We need your support, by subscribing to our updates we can inform you when new information arrives, when new proposals are submitted and importantly how and when to object.

Substation

A third substation is planned within 500m of the original Tealing sub station when the second SeaGreen substation is not even complete.

Battery Storage

Unsightly, Noisy shipping containers that can catch fire. Such fires are almost impossible to put out.

Super Pylons
