Scope and Content Errochty power station is the largest on the Tummel Valley scheme. A 10km tunnel from Loch Errochty feeds its turbines and they discharge into Loch Tummel via the power station's outflow, seen here. Architect James Shearer used stone from the tunnel to cover the building. Designing power stations to blend into the landscape made them better accepted by local people. Errochty has a power capacity of 75 MW and was commissioned in 1955.
