Blair Hill Wind Farm

RES has updated its plans for a wind farm, the nearest turbine of which would be located approximately 4.5km north of the centre of Newton Stewart, Dumfries and Gallloway.

In January 2024, RES established a Community Liaison Group to provide a forum for discussion and exchange of information as well as to create an effective channel of communication between RES, the local community and stakeholders.  For more information, please click here.

Since our first public exhibitions in October 2023 when we presented a preliminary design for the proposed Blair Hill Wind Farm, we have undertaken further extensive site survey work to build our understanding of the site. The findings from this, together with the comments received from the community and stakeholders, has resulted in an updated design.

We will be presenting the updated design for the wind farm at our second set of public exhibitions. These events will provide more detailed information on the project, including how we have taken on board constructive feedback from the local community to help shape our designs and proposals.
