Green Highlands Hydro (GHH)

Green Highland Hydro is a portfolio of thirteen run-of-river hydro plants across various sites in the north and west of Scotland. Twelve of the plants are in operation; the thirteenth is under construction and is planned to be operational from March 2021. Each plant has an expected operational life of at least 40 years.

Revenue comes from the generation and sale of renewable energy. The combined generating capacity is 27.8 MWe. Each of the sites benefits from guaranteed export tariffs which provide protection if the power price falls below £55 per MWh.

The plants are operated by Simec GHR. Equitix Fund V is 100% shareholder.
