‘Minimum impact’ claim by renewable energy developer over Swarclett wind turbines – John O Groat Journal – Scotland Against Spin

A renewable energy developer has pledged that two new wind turbines in the centre of Caithness will have “minimum impact” on the surrounding area.

UK-based Wind2 is seeking permission to build Swarclett Wind Farm on agricultural land approximately one kilometre south-east of Mains of Durran.

Community benefit will include a scheme to help reduce electricity costs for residents.

The planning application appeared on Highland Council’s website on Monday, with 158 associated documents.

The application is for two turbines, each with a blade-tip height of up to 149.9m, and a battery energy storage system with a total installed capacity of approximately 21.6 megawatts and associated infrastructure. https://www.johnogroat-journal.co.uk/news/minimum-impact-claim-by-renewable-energy-developer-over-sw-370925/?fbclid=IwY2xjawHp2M1leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHdsKPmWT86ZHEo-ceCi37iFr0VHoQQ5row-Zy3fHHcMq84QxiL7-5KZIZQ_aem_i2XTG1Kyrm3BHDy7F31ekw
