Default Green Light For Huge Wind Farm

Project To Create 200 Jobs Scottish And Southern Energy

THE largest onshore wind farm in Europe will help make Scotland the continent's "green capital", Alex Salmond said yesterday.

The First Minister spoke as the Scottish government approved the 152-turbine Clyde development near Abington in Lanarkshire.

He said: "The Clyde wind farm will represent a very important step in the development of renewable energy in Scotland and in meeting European targets.

"It is another step towards making Scotland the green energy capital of Europe."

The project is expected to bring £600million investment, will create 200 jobs during construction and will generate enough power for 320,000 homes.

But do we really want to cover Britain in turbines?
