Chleansaid Wind Farm
The consented Chleansaid Wind Farm will utilise the natural environment to harness clean, zero carbon energy and also support the long-term management of the estate on which Chleansaid Wind Farm will be located. The development site benefits from good wind speeds, existing site access, a grid connection, is in an area of low residential density and has no on-site environmental designations.
