A spokesperson explained: "Connection capacity currently exists at expanded or newly developed strategic substations in the Scottish Borders and this is why we are working to develop, construct and operate a battery energy storage system in immediate proximity to the Eccles HV substation.
Eccles Energy Centre Limited, which has submitted plans for a 500MW facility around two kilometres south of Leithholm, says there are significant restrictions to where battery developments can currently be connected to the network.
Approval for battery energy storage facilities is decided, depending on their size, by either the local authority or the Scottish government's Energy Consents Unit (ECU). The Scottish government says that impacts on communities are a consideration under their Fourth National Planning Framework (NPF4).
But resident James Finnie believes one of the proposed battery storage facilities near Eccles substation has put his life in limbo. He explained: "Both my wife and I have elderly parents in their 80s and 90s - and we decided a couple of years ago to sell up and move closer so that we could take care of them.
Residents of Leitholm - a village between Coldstream and Greenlaw - claim the heart is being ripped out of their community with the arrival of battery storage facilities. If all six proposed facilities are approved, more than 200 acres of farmland will be turned over to concreted compounds within a three-kilometre radius of their village.
SPEN are currently consulting with two other communities in the Scottish Borders - near Hawick and Lauder - about the creation of two new substations as part of their Cross Border Connection Project.
