Whilst the Environmental Impact Assessment for wind power at Ascog Farm nears completion our friends at Ardbeg Farm, Bute, have successfully installed their three C&F (since shut down in 2019) wind turbines.
Apparently some local residents were rather surprised that the turbines were up, having not spotted any of the planning notices printed months ago in local paper The Buteman. One was heard to ask ‘who to complain to’ although the Facebook poll for ButeFM suggests that most people (115 plays 13 – or 90% – as at 11.04.2012) were in favour of the development.
Congratulations to local farming couple Jim and Janet for taking the project through planning successfully and making the installation.
Hopefully larger turbines at Ascog Farm will be next through planning slightly later this year!
