Clashindarroch Wind Farm

Vattenfall’s response to the ruling in the Clashindarroch II Wind Farm Judicial Review

Responding to the ruling in the Clashindarroch II Wind Farm Judicial Review, Matt Bacon, Senior Project Manager at Vattenfall said:

“This is a welcome decision which completely vindicates the Scottish Government’s decision to award planning consent to Clashindarroch II Wind Farm.

“Vattenfall’s wind farms are designed to both reduce carbon emissions and protect wildlife. Our existing wind farm in the Clashindarroch forest has already been generating electricity for over 8 years with no known negative impact on the wildcat population, where we have improved the habitat to provide further cover for the wildcats to hunt and roam. We now look forward to delivering the benefits a project like this can bring for the local economy and environment, including initiating new environmental projects locally to boost biodiversity for the benefit of wildcats and other species.”
