Is-orsaf Llandyfaelog
Rydym nawr wedi cwblhau ein cynlluniau ac yn bwriadu cyflwyno cais cynllunio i adeiladu is-orsaf 400kV newydd ar dir ger Llandyfaelog. Yn unol rheoliadau cynllunio Cymru, cyn i ni gyflwyno ein cais cynllunio i Gyngor Sir Caerfyrddin, rydym yn cynnal Ymgynghoriad Cyn Ymgeisio o ddydd Mawrth 18 Tachwedd hyd at ddydd Mawrth 16 Rhagfyr, i ymgynghori â rhanddeiliaid arbenigol a chymunedol perthnasol. Mae hyn yn dilyn ein hymgynghoriad cyhoeddus a gynhaliwyd yn Haf 2025. Cewch weld y dogfennau technegol sy’n ymwneud â’n cais yn y Llyfrgell Ddogfennau isod. Gallwch roi adborth drwy anfon e-bost i [email protected] neu ysgrifennu atom yn RHADBOST GC Llandyfaelog.
Mae National Grid yn cynnig codi is-orsaf newydd 400 kV ger Llandyfaelog, i’r de o Gaerfyrddin, i helpu i ateb y galw cynyddol am drydan yn yr ardal.
Rydyn ni’n adeiladu’r is-orsaf i ymateb i geisiadau cysylltu y mae NGET wedi’u derbyn yn Ne Cymru gan Green GEN Cymru a National Grid Energy Distribution (NGED).
Mae gan NGET ddyletswydd gyfreithiol i gysylltu cwsmeriaid â’n rhwydwaith pan fydd cais yn cael ei wneud. Pan nad oes gan is-orsafoedd presennol y capasiti ar gyfer maint y cysylltiad sydd ei angen, mae’n ofynnol i ni adeiladu un newydd i ddiwallu’r angen. Yn yr achos hwn, rydyn ni’n cynnig is-orsaf newydd ger Llandyfaelog.
NGET fydd yn berchen ar yr is-orsaf 400 kV arfaethedig ger Llandyfaelog, ac yn gyfrifol am ei chynnal. Bydd yn ofynnol i ddatblygwyr sydd yn dymuno cysylltu â'r grid cael is-orsafoedd eu hunain ochr yn ochr ag is-orsaf 400 kV NGET, a byddant yn gyfrifol am sicrhau eu caniatâd cynllunio eu hunain. Mae pob prosiect yn wahanol i’w gilydd ac yn gyfrifol am sicrhau caniatâd cynllunio unigol ar gyfer unrhyw seilwaith arfaethedig.
Ble mae safle’r is-orsaf arfaethedig?
Byddai’r is-orsaf newydd tua 6km i’r de o Gaerfyrddin. Cynigir mynediad i’r safle o ffordd fynediad newydd a fydd yn cysylltu â’r A484.
Beth yw is-orsafoedd a sut maen nhw’n gweithio?
Mae is-orsafoedd yn rhannau hanfodol o’r rhwydweithiau trawsyrru a dosbarthu ac yn sicrhau bod trydan yn gallu cael ei drawsyrru ar wahanol folteddau, mewn ffordd ddiogel a dibynadwy.
Un o'r prif bethau mae is-orsaf yn ei wneud yw newid foltedd trydan. Mae angen hyn er mwyn gallu trawsyrru’r trydan ledled y wlad ac yna ei ddosbarthu drwy gymdogaethau lleol ac i’n cartrefi, ein busnesau a’n hadeiladau.
Mae NGET yn cymryd trydan a gynhyrchir o ffynonellau pŵer ac yn ei gludo drwy’r rhwydwaith o linellau uwchben y tir, ceblau ac is-orsafoedd. Mae wedyn yn cael ei drosglwyddo ar foltedd is drwy’r rhwydweithiau dosbarthu lleol i gartrefi a busnesau.
Pam mae angen yr is-orsaf newydd?

Bydd angen is-orsafoedd eu hunain ar y generaduron ochr yn ochr ag is-orsaf 400 kV NGET, a byddant yn gyfrifol am sicrhau eu caniatâd cynllunio eu hunain. Mae pob prosiect yn wahanol i’w gilydd ac yn gyfrifol am sicrhau caniatâd cynllunio unigol ar gyfer unrhyw seilwaith arfaethedig.
Bydd yr is-orsaf arfaethedig ger Llandyfaelog yn helpu i ateb y galw am drydan yn Ne Cymru.

Llandyfaelog Substation
We have now finalised our plans and intend to apply for planning permission to construct a new 400kV substation at land near Llandyfaelog. In line with Welsh planning regulations, before we submit our planning application to Carmarthenshire County Council, we are running a Pre-Application Consultation (PAC) from Tuesday 18 November until Tuesday 16 December, consulting relevant specialist and community stakeholders. This follows our public consultation that we held in Summer 2025. You can view the technical documents associated with our application in the Document Library below. You can provide feedback by emailing us at [email protected] or writing to us at FREEPOST NG Llandyfaelog.
National Grid is proposing a new 400 kV substation near Llandyfaelog, south of Carmarthen, to help meet the growing demand for electricity in the area.
We are building the substation in response to connection requests NGET has received in South Wales from Green Gen Cymru and National Grid Energy Distribution (NGED).
NGET have a legal obligation to connect customers to our network when a connection is requested. When existing substations do not have the capacity for the size of the connection required, we are required to build a new one to meet the need. In this case, we are proposing a new substation near Llandyfaelog.
NGET will own and maintain the proposed 400 kV substation near Llandyfaelog. The generators will require their own substations alongside the NGET 400 kV substation and will be responsible for securing their own planning permission. Each project is distinct from one another and is responsible for securing individual planning permissions for any proposed infrastructure.
Where is the site of the proposed substation?
The new substation would be located around 6km south of Carmarthen. Site access is proposed to be from a new access road which will connect to the A484.
What are substations and how do they work?
Substations are critical parts of the transmission and distribution networks and enable electricity to be transmitted at different voltages, securely and reliably.
One of the main roles of substations is to convert electricity into different voltages. This is needed so the electricity can be transmitted throughout the country and then distributed throughout local neighbourhoods and into our homes, businesses and buildings.
NGET takes electricity generated from power sources and transports it through its network of overhead lines, cables, and substations. It is then transmitted at a lower voltage via the local distribution networks to homes and businesses.

What happens next?
Ahead of our planning submission to Carmarthenshire County Council, we are running a Pre-Application Consultation from 18 November to 16 December.
We will continue our discussions with landowners and undertake surveys, technical and environmental work in and around the proposed substation site to give us more information about the area and to help inform our plans. You may see us, and our contractors, working in and around the proposed site.
We intend to submit our planning application to Carmarthenshire County Council in 2026.
