The grid is croaking.  There is a plan going through for a new 400KV pylon from Caithness down to Beauly (to join up with the already upgraded line from Beauly to Denny in the central belt.  There are many other pinch points in the grid preventing full use of the existing renewable energy at times, let alone adding much more.
