Ceislein Onshore Wind Farm

Introduction

Our Ceislein project is located in Ross and Cromarty, Scotland.

We originally chose land at Ceislein due to various investigations that showed its suitability for a wind farm. Our early studies showed the area’s wind resources and connections to the national electricity network make it an excellent place for a wind farm.

Latest Information

During the past year we have been carrying out a series of environmental surveys to help us design the wind farm. Alongside these surveys we have also held a series of initial public consultation events and the feedback from these has also helped us shape the design. We are now preparing to host a second round of public exhibitions for Ceislein Wind Farm proposals. Since our last round of public events, we’ve made several significant updates to our designs, and we believe it’s vital that local residents have the opportunity to view these changes and share their thoughts.

Meaningful community engagement is at the heart of our approach—your input plays an important role in shaping our proposals. Invitations have also been sent to over 12,000 residents. Full details of the events have also been published in the Press and Journal (16 & 23 April) and the Ross-shire Journal (18 & 25 April).
