Glenkerie

Novera submitted a planning application to the Scottish Borders Council in December 2007 to build a small wind farm at Glenkerie, approximately 5km north west of Tweedsmuir and 12km south east of Biggar.
The eleven turbine proposal is expected to have a generation capacity of between 22-27MW and has been under development since 2006. The layout proposed is the result of the environmental studies undertaken during the 18 months to the end of 2007 and consultations with a wide range of people and organisations including the local planning department and residents in the area.
Renewable energy expected to be generated will be sufficient to supply the average annual domestic needs of approximately 16,400 households*. This is the equivalent of over 30% of the population of Scottish Borders local authority area.
If you have any questions or would like to register your support for the proposal, please email us at: glenkeriewindfarm@noveraenergy.com.
* Based on 4,700kWh average annual household electricity consumption, recommended by BWEA and sourced from BERR (previously DTI) Digest of UK Energy Statistics, 2005).
