Fred. Olsen Renewables has submitted proposals to the Scottish government for permission to develop the 57MW Culachy wind farm.
The eight-turbine development is planned for a site to the south of Fort Augustus, in the Scottish Highlands.
As a result of local feedback, the developer reduced the planned number of turbines at the site and reduced their tip height to 200 metres in order to minimise the impact on views from local villages and Loch Ness.
Rachel O’Donnell, project manager at Fred. Olsen Renewables, said: “We are pleased to submit our plans for Culachy wind farm. I have welcomed the time that local residents have spent considering our plans and their feedback has really helped to shape the final proposals.”
