Kinlochteacuis hydro is a 271kW hydroscheme on the Morvern peninsula, in the West of Scotland.  Wemyss Renewables identified the site in 2013 and developed the project under a lease from the landowner.  Consents were received in 2014, and Wemyss worked with a JV partner to finance the construction of the project.  In September 2016 the scheme was commissioned with a sympathetically designed powerhouse clad in local stone and a slated roof.  Wemyss Renewables sold its stake in the project in 2018.
