Na i Beilonau Dyffryn Tywi - No to Dyffryn Tywi Pylons

Na i Beilonau Dyffryn Tywi - No to Dyffryn Tywi Pylons!

Rwy’n siŵr eich bod yn ymwybodol erbyn hyn o’r cynlluniau gan Bute Energy i sefydlu coridor o beilonau a gwifrau trydan yn cysylltu fferm wynt yn y Canolbarth i’r Grid Cenedlaethol, a hynny drwy Ddyffryn Tywi.

Mae’r cynnig hwn wedi creu cryn dipyn o ofid yn yr ardal leol, oherwydd ei effaith gweledol ar y dyffryn, sydd yn enwog am ei harddwch a’i dirwedd brydferth.

Tra ein bod yn llawn sylweddoli’r angen am fwy o ynni adnewyddadwy, rydym o’r farn bod modd cludo’r ynni yma drwy wifrau o dan y ddaear, a fyddai’n sicrhau ffynhonnell newydd o egni gwyrdd tra hefyd yn parchu’r gymuned leol a threftadaeth yr ardal.

Arwyddwch ein deiseb, sy’n galw ar osod y gwifrau yma dan y ddaear, a dangoswch nad ydym yn barod i dderbyn peilonau ar hyd Dyffryn Tywi.

You may be aware of the proposals by Bute Energy to establish a corridor of energy pylons and cables from a wind farm in Mid Wales, going through the Tywi Valley to join the National Grid.

This has caused significant concerns in the local area, as this would have a significant visual impact on the valley, which is renowned for its natural beauty and stunning, picturesque landscape.

Whilst recognising the need for increased renewable energy sources, we believe that transmission of this energy can be achieved by placing these cables underground, which would ensure a new source of green energy and respect the local area’s communities and their heritage.

Sign our petition for the undergrounding of these cables and help us demonstrate the strength of opposition to the proposed pylon route in the Tywi Valley.

    These pylons will ruin the landscape and locals lives. Underground is the only way forward. Never have I felt so strongly about anything. Green Gen/Bute are in this for profit only. Even their representatives admit they wouldn’t like pylons near their location. One even said “oh but it will never affect me as I live in an area of outstanding beauty” Grrr. House prices will plummet because of this. They must be stopped

    New High voltage lines should be put underground for many reasons – it is greener, safer, and won’t spoil our beautiful countryside.

    Cable ploughing and saving on compensation payments makes the extra cost small.

    I believe that Bute Energy is deliberately overstating the cost of undergrounding. In a recent detailed comparative cost analysis for a 132kV feeder for HS2, the cost premium of underground versus pylon lines was a small fraction (0.62) of the 7-10x quoted by Bute. Our beautiful countryside in south and mid-Wales is worth protecting!

    Cables underground is a compromise; cables above ground on pylons is a destruction of this part of Wales and a blow for the tourist industry that rural Wales relies upon. There are other shorter routes to link points in the grid system, they should be used. That would make economical sense !
