Wind Prospect's Plans. Blue area - Clackmannanshire, Green - Perth and Kinross. Black dots - current turbines. |
Wind Prospect which built the 13-turbine Burnfoot Wind Power Station now wish to apply to build another 22 turbines as shown on the above map. If granted, they have 'promised' that they will not submit any future applications for turbines 'in the immediate area'. How good of them.
Burnfoot should never have been approved and Wind Prospect have clearly adopted the now common strategy of obtaining approval for a relatively small number of turbines then applying for extensions at a later date.
If this new development is approved, the Ochils are really on their way to becoming one big wind power station.
