Allt an Tuir Renewable Energy Park Proposal
Welcome
Thank you for visiting the Allt an Tuir Renewable Energy Park project website.
It is proposed that the project will include wind turbines, solar panels and battery storage units and will be located near Rosehall in Sutherland.
We are in the early stages of the project and this website will be updated throughout the development process to keep you informed.
Public Exhibition - 7 February 2024
We held the first public consultation on the proposal at Rosehall Community Hall (IV27 4EU) on Wednesday 7 February 2024, 2.30pm –7.30pm. The first consultation will run until Wednesday 6 March 2024, with further public consultation later in the year.
Site location of the Proposed Allt an Tuir Renewable Energy Park
The importance of taking action to address the Climate Emergency is recognised by The Highland Council, the Scottish Government and the UK Government.
In line with advice from the Committee on Climate Change (CCC), in preparing the Climate Change Act 2019, the Scottish Government has set a target date of 2045 for reaching net-zero carbon emissions and raised the ambition of the 2030 and 2040 targets to 70% and 90% emissions reductions respectively.
The CCC’s advice is that Scotland can achieve their target if action is taken to develop further renewable energy assets. Renewable projects such as Allt an Tuir Renewable Energy Park will help with this goal.
