The Lanark Hydro Electric Scheme consists of two hydroelectric plants in the Clydesdale area of South Lanarkshire, Scotland. They are run-of-the-river power stations, using water from the River Clyde near to the Falls of Clyde. Bonnington Power Station gets its water supply from just above Corra Linn in New Lanark, while Stonebyres Power Station takes water from above Stonebyres Linn near Kirkfieldbank. Bonnington is the larger of the two stations, which between them can produce 17 MW. The Lanark Hydro Electric Scheme was the first large-scale scheme in the United Kingdom to produce clean renewable energy for public supply, using water from the Falls of Clyde to power homes and meet the growing demand for electricity after World War I. The scheme does not use dams for water storage, relying instead on there being sufficient water in the river and flowing down the waterfalls to enable the power stations to operate for most of the year. The two stations generate enough electricity for power over 17,000 homes, and make a significant contribution to the target of producing 40 per cent of Scotland's energy from renewable sources by 2020.
