ILI Group operates across the energy storage,

renewable energy and residential development

markets; creating value for our investors in all

three sectors.

‘Intelligent Land Investments’

was formed in 2004 with the aim of helping

resolve the UK’s housing crisis by promoting eco-friendly developments

where the housing need is the greatest.

The experience and expertise gained in site selection and planning was

later put to use with the aim of helping reduce CO2 emissions by focusing

on creating planning gain from renewable energy projects.

Projects ranged from medium sized, single turbine developments under the

UK’s Feed-in Tariff scheme, right up to large scale multi-turbine windfarms.

That project saw 600 landowners sign up with the company, creating a unique

network of land owners throughout Scotland.

160 of the most suitable sites

were progressed, resulting in 96 successful planning approvals.

In 2017 ILI Group Plc was formed with the express aim of achieving

planning consents for three Pumped Storage Hydro Sites (PSH) in Scotland.

Each one is an infrastructure project of national significance with a total

combined storage capacity of 1.5GW, or greater.

Suitable sites for the PSH projects were screened and selected from a list

of over 90.

Of these, 13 were identified as having high potential worthy of

further stringent assessment. The very best 3 sites brought forward were

those which meet our strict criteria, had the best natural topography, and

met our high technical standards.

The full planning application for the first of our three PSH project was

submitted in 2018.
