Bid in for 132-turbine wind farm
An application for a 132-wind turbine project in southern Scotland has been submitted to the Scottish government.
Scottish Power Renewables wants to build the scheme at Kilgallioch Forest near New Luce in Dumfries and Galloway.
If constructed it would be one of the largest wind farms in Scotland with a capacity of up to 396 megawatts.
Representations on the plans can be put forward until 28 April and a number of public information days will take place prior to that date.
The proposed site sits on the border between Dumfries and Galloway and South Ayrshire.
Information days will be held at New Luce, Kirkcowan and Barrhill next month to outline the plans.
Scottish Power Renewables is one of the UK’s largest wind farm developers with 30 projects currently operational, under construction or in planning.
