Vattenfall has greenlit the Clashindarroch II onshore wind farm, located next to its existing Clashindarroch farm near Huntly, Aberdeenshire.
The planned 14 wind turbines will generate up to 63 MW of renewable electricity, enough to power around 61,000 homes per year.
The preparatory works for Clashindarroch II will begin in autumn 2025, while construction is expected to begin in spring 2026.
Wildcat Haven director Paul O’Donoghue told BBC Scotland News the wind farm would be “potentially catastrophic” for wildlife.
“Wildcat Haven is absolutely pro-renewables, but it’s all about the right development for the right site and this is clearly the wrong development at the wrong site,” he added.
