Castlemilk & Carmunnock Community Wind Park : About

"Addressing climate change is a must and given Scotland's renewable energy resource, it seems only sensible to maximise our use of wind energy and develop new marine power technologies. Scotland is well placed to become a world leader in the field."

What is Castlemilk & Carmunnock Community Wind Farm Steering Group?

The Steering Group came together in July 2002 to investigate the feasibility of a community run and owned Urban Wind Farm in the Castlemilk and Carmunnock areas of Glasgow.

The aim is not to replace existing electricity suppliers in the area but to invest profits from the resultant sale of Green Energy produced into a Community Managed Trust for the benefit of the local community.
