Wind farm proposals in Skye and Caithness received polar opposite reactions from councillors at yesterday’s Highland Council north planning committee.
Proposals by Kilmac Energy to modify plans for its Glen Ullinish windfarm at Struan, on Skye, were backed by elected members.
But Infinergy’s proposals to extend their unpopular Limekiln wind farm by five turbines at Shebster, Thurso, were thrown out.
It’s 21 turbine Limekiln site, south of Reay, was granted permission on appeal by Scottish ministers in June 2019, following an impassioned campaign by local residents, refusal by Highland Council and a public local inquiry. https://www.energyvoice.com/otherenergy/wind/uk-wind/273190/mixed-fortunes-for-highland-wind-farm-plans/
