South Loch Ness wind farm bid could dwarf Stonelairg turbines – Inverness Courier

Published by SAS Volunteer on

A new wind farm is being considered in the hills above Loch Ness with what would be the highest turbines in the area.
European energy company Vattenfall is behind the Glenmarkie project and has just submitted a scoping report to the Scottish Government’s Energy Consents Unit.
The firm says it is in the early stages of exploring a potential wind farm proposal on a site 16km east of Fort Augustus and 8km south-east of Whitebridge, on south Loch Ness-side.
Documents submitted with the scoping report show that the Glenmarkie project would sit directly between the Stronelairg and Corriegarth wind farms to the south-east of Loch Ness.  https://www.inverness-courier.co.uk/news/south-loch-ness-wind-farm-bid-could-dwarf-stronelairg-turbin-392378/
