Homes for Workers: SSEN Funds 300 New Scottish Houses
18 Dec
Summary
- SSEN Transmission will help fund nearly 300 new homes in Scotland.
- Properties will house workers on electricity projects before becoming affordable housing.
- The development supports Scotland's renewable energy sector transition.

SSEN Transmission is set to bolster communities in north and north east Scotland by contributing to the funding of nearly 300 new homes. Developments are planned for Lhanbryde in Moray, Turriff in Aberdeenshire, and Muir of Ord in the Highlands.
These properties will first serve as accommodation for workers engaged in significant electricity infrastructure projects. Subsequently, they will transition into much-needed affordable housing and be offered for private sale, benefiting rural areas.
The initiative is part of a larger commitment by SSEN Transmission to support the creation of 1,000 new homes across Scotland, aligning with the nation's renewable energy expansion and net-zero transition goals.
