Planning Details

Windhoist - Turbine erection

(2012) Caithness Spittal Hill wind farm plans rejected
The area already has Causeymire, Flex Hill and ACHAIRN wind farms, while one at Camster has planning consent and another farm has been proposed for Halsary.

Bringing Companies to Life: ACHAIRN Energy Limited
The wind farm is now operational and the electricity generated by the four turbines is equivalent to that consumed by approximately 4,500 homes.
