The proposed 49.9 MW battery energy storage facility will feature 40 containers, each measuring 20 feet in length, designed to house the battery units. Each set of batteries will be securely enclosed within single-story shipping containers to protect them from the elements, and equipped with cooling fans to maintain a consistent temperature year-round.

To convert and manage the stored energy, the facility will include ten power converter stations along with the equipment to distribute the power through a proposed switchgear station, which will connect to Alness Substation. In addition to the switchgear building, there will be two ancillary buildings, one for control operations and the other for storage.

Key infrastructure will include a water storage tank for emergency use, a security system, a clean point, and designated parking spaces for the maintenance team. To manage water runoff, a detention basin will be located to the south of the hardstanding area, forming part of the comprehensive drainage infrastructure.

For public safety, all equipment and ancillary structures will be enclosed within security fencing.

As part of a broader environmental enhancement initiative, the surrounding area will be planted with a mix of native deciduous trees and shrubs, promoting habitat connectivity for local wildlife. Additionally, bird and bat boxes will be installed to encourage biodiversity, and bulb planting areas, featuring snowdrops and crocuses, will provide essential nectar and pollen for bees and birds year-round.

To protect these newly planted trees from deer damage, secure fencing will be installed, though a pathway with a self-closing gate will be provided to ensure easy access and connectivity through the planted areas.
