Camster II Onshore Wind Farm

Latest Information (April 2026)

The 36 megawatts (MW) project was first consented in July 2021 and construction started in 2023. It first generated electricity in March 2026 and is now fully operational with the capacity to power the equivalent of around 51,000 typical homes.

Camster II consists of 10 turbines and is one of four new RWE onshore wind farms in Scotland under construction and the first to be completed and commissioned in 2026. Together the four wind farms total up to 232 MW - Camster II at 36 MW (Caithness), Strathy Wood at 63 MW (Sutherland), Enoch Hill at 70 MW (East Ayrshire) and Golticlay at 62.7MW (Caithness).

Community Support

RWE is committed to supporting the communities that neighbour our wind farms. In 2022 alone community funds from wind farms operated by RWE in Scotland invested around £780,000 into local projects.

Camster Wind Farm already has an operational community fund, administered by Foundation Scotland, with all decisions on the allocation of funding made by a panel of local people. Camster II Wind Farm, once operational, will bring with it further community funding. During the wind farm’s construction period, our Community Investment Manager will work with local stakeholders to understand the best way to structure the new fund to maximise the benefit to local communities.
