Chràthaich Renewables LLP is looking into the feasibility of developing a wind farm on Corrimony Farm, near Cannich in Highland. 



Initial feasibility studies realised great potential for wind energy production and encouraged the business to work on developing a proposal that is both sensitive and appropriate to the local area. 

​

Site survey work began in the spring of 2020. A Scoping Report has now been prepared and has been submitted to the Scottish Government Energy Consents Unit in April of 2021. 

​​

This website is intended to allow news and information related to the proposal to be communicated between the project development team and the surrounding local communities.  

 

The site is located in Highland, the site boundary located over 7km southeast of Cannich.

​

The site is located on the slopes around and beneath Meall a’ Chràthaich, Carn na Ruighe Duibhe, Loch a’ Mhuilinn, Loch na Leirisdein, and Loch nam Meirleach, which vary in elevation between 430m-679m AOD. The site is predominantly upland heath habitat with a variety of lochs and lochans, and several watercourses that drain to Loch ma Stac and the River Enrick.



For a more detailed map of the site and it's situation please visit 'Our Proposal' webpage.  







Chràthaich Renewables LLP is a partnership comprising the Girvan Family, owners of Corrimony Farm, and Muirden Energy LLP, a Scottish renewable energy developer. Over the past decade, both partners have had a keen interest in sustainability, with the landowner volunteering to work with SRUC as a Climate Change Focus Farm and Muirden Energy LLP developing numerous onshore wind energy projects.

 

On previous wind farm projects, a strong emphasis has been placed on working together with local landowners to deliver the benefits of renewable energy to rural businesses, whilst an effort has also been made to provide an opportunity to local communities to get involved in projects. Chràthaich Renewables LLP is keen to offer the same opportunities to the local communities surrounding this latest proposal.
