The wind farm will deliver 630GWh of green energy annually, sufficient to meet the power requirements of 217,000 homes.

The project will also support the Scottish government’s renewable energy targets.

EDF PPA head Tom Abbott stated: “It’s great to be definitively helping Britain achieve net zero through this PPA agreement, which will bring new renewables onto our grid via this new onshore wind farm in Scotland.
