Mucomir Hydro-Electric Scheme is a small-scale hydro-electric power station, built by the North of Scotland Hydro-Electric Board and commissioned in 1962. It is located on the Mucomir Cut, a waterway created by Thomas Telford during the building of the Caledonian Canal to replace the existing course of the River Lochy below Loch Lochy, so that the old course could be used for the canal. The power station was substantially upgraded in 2017.
