We believe communities should see tangible benefits from local renewable energy projects. If approved, Lairdmannoch Energy Park will deliver approximately £310,000 per year in community benefit funding, totalling up to £12.4million over the project’s operational lifetime. The community benefit proposals are in line with Scottish Government best practice guidance.
Community Share Ownership
Wind2 would look to explore potential models for part community share ownership of the proposed Lairdmannoch Energy Park, whereby the local communities would have the opportunity to invest into the project.
A variety of community share ownership structures, in line with the Scottish Government’s Good Practice Principles, would be explored and discussed with the local communities as the project progresses to establish the appropriate structure of this opportunity.
