IT’S time to call a halt to further onshore wind farm development in Scotland, other than small community-owned ones. Applications for sites are fuelling a landgrab, enriching speculators at huge cost to the public purse and are desecrating the natural environment in many parts of our land.
Scotland already produces more energy than it requires and many turbines will simply stand with the blades not turning due to lack of grid capacity, all the while perversely being paid more than when operating, due to constraint payments and the absurdity of UK electricity system. https://www.thenational.scot/politics/25590194.time-say-no-onshore-wind-farms-scotland/?fbclid=IwY2xjawN18ElleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHtH3hEbDfbnzOgTpbH52W1RkNSw4iJyfds_wAhtLt1vKwREO_bz5rJXQ3Vaf_aem_rbPsH8WJEmMyDpmiydoOhw
