MachairWind Offshore Development

Generating 100% green energy

 

ScottishPower Renewables (SPR) is moving forward in the development of the MachairWind project located Northwest of Islay and West of Colonsay. Machair is a Scottish Gaelic word meaning ‘fertile low-lying grassy plain’. MachairWind is our first offshore windfarm of its kind in Scottish waters, with a generating capacity of 2 Gigawatts - enough clean, green electricity to power the equivalent of up to 2 million homes across the UK.
