Why we are doing what we are doing

This site has been created because we are concerned about inappropriately large wind turbines.

We are not anti-wind or anti-renewables and we haven't objected to the smaller developments in the area. However, recently there have been projects at various stages of planning that are three and four times the size of any of the turbines that are currently in the area. Unlike the existing Turbine projects, these benefit the few, to the massive detriment of the community.

Group fears landowners are pushing turbine envelope north of Dunfermline - The Courier


An environmental protection group has expressed its fears that developers seem to be engaged in a "race to profit" from setting up wind turbines in an area deemed unsuitable for their use.
SPOT Fife says it has serious concerns about the number of wind turbine applications coming forward for a zone north of Dunfermline, which has already been earmarked by Fife Council as unsuitable due to the area's high landscape value.
The comments came after a further two developerssubmitted proposals in the last week, adding to an already high number apparently in the pipeline.
