Council opposed to more turbines at wind farm

A council will object to proposed new turbines at a wind farm in the Scottish Borders.

Fred Olsen Renewables, which is a subsidiary of Oslo-based Bonheur ASA, wants to add 11 more turbines at Crystal Rig Wind Farm in the Lammermuir Hills. The move would bring the total number of turbines up to 102.

The turbines will be at least 149m tall. Scottish Borders Council will lodge an objection.
