A DEVELOPER say their campaign to raise interest from businesses in their controversial wind farm development has had an incredible response.

Vattenfall, the energy company behind the up to £190 million 50-turbine South Kyle Wind Farm, say they have signed up a century of firms.

Vattenfall is keen to speak with more businesses in Ayrshire at an event on April 30 at The Park Hotel, Kilmarnock. Companies will find out more about the proposed South Kyle Wind Farm and the potential business opportunities.

The event, which starts from 3pm and closes at 7pm, will enable businesses to find out more about the opportunities that exist for local firms if the South Kyle Wind Farm application is successful. They form part of the company’s on-going initiatives to engage with and develop the local supply chain. Any business wishing to register for the event can book online at www.vattenfall.co.uk/en/south-kyle.htm.
