A public consultation is to be held amid plans for a new wind farm near Sanquhar.
Koehler Renewable Energy (KRE), which is heading up the bid, is holding its first formal community consultation event for a proposed eight-turbine farm.
Rowancraig Wind Farm would be located approximately 4km west of Sanquhar in Dumfries and Galloway, with early designs incorporating eight turbines, with a maximum tip height of 180m.

The first round will be held on Wednesday, July 5, in the Nithsdale Hotel, Sanquhar and on Thursday, July 6, in the Miners Memorial Centre in Kirkconnel, between 2 and 7 pm.

Nick Forrest, senior project developer for Koehler Renewable Energy UK, said: "Koehler Renewable Energy is delighted to have the opportunity to consult with the community over our Rowancraig proposals.
"For the last seven months, we have done our utmost to listen closely to local ambitions and concerns and believe these initial plans are already part of a collaborative process.
"This development has the potential to offer a significant community benefit to Sanquhar, and it is critical residents record their views with us online or at the consultation events.
"We are keen to engage with the local community, listen to all views, and provide as much detail as possible regarding the proposals for Rowancraig and the opportunities for the area.
"KRE would like as many voices as possible to be involved in this process and encourage community members to share event details with friends, family, and neighbours."
