The scheme operates with an over 90% load factor and so provides a reliable and secure source of local generation.

Proterra Energy continue to supply both maintenance and monitoring for the scheme.

Rigg is one of four micro hydro schemes installed by Proterra Energy on the Isle of Skye and was commissioned in 2016 with a power output of 50kW.
