For those who braved the very chilly wind to visit the site on Saturday (23rd March), thank you very much to the Girvans for answering all our questions. It was great to see the turbines in operation.

Late Monday evening this week (March 11th), the wind farm was finally energised. Over the next few days, the turbines will be started and begin generating electricity.

The Girvans are inviting members of the Strathglass and Glen Urquhart communities to visit the Corrimony windfarm on Saturday 23rd March between 10am and 1pm. Please report to the Corrimony Energy site office where visitors will be asked to ensure that all cars visiting the site are full to minimise the number of cars on the track.

The remaining steps, having erected the fifth and final turbine, are to finish the work on the grid connection and complete the commissioning of the turbines so the hope is that the wind farm will be generating power before the end of the month!!
