Wind Farm Site

Welcome to Tom na Clach Wind Farm Extension

Scotland leads the way in harnessing renewable energy sources. 

In line with advice from the Committee on Climate Change (CCC), in preparing the Climate Change Act 2019, the Scottish Government has set a target date of 2045 for reaching net-zero emissions and raised the ambition of the 2030 and 2040 targets to 70% and 90% emissions reductions respectively.  The Climate Change Act 2019 means that Scotland has the most stringent statutory targets in the world.

The CCC’s advice is that Scotland can now achieve such a target, provided that action is taken to develop further renewable energy assets. Wind farms such as Tom na Clach Wind Farm Extension will help us achieve this aim.

Ways to ensure the landscape, itself a vital part of our economy, can accommodate these targets include carefully chosen sites and sensitively designed developments.
