Benefiting the Community

Following discussions with the Devon Wood Wind Farm Community Liaison Forum a generous package of £3,500 per installed megawatt has been guaranteed. The capacity of the development is up to 17.5MW so that would provide a fund of £61,250 per year for 25 years.

The Independent Devon Wood Wind Farm Community Liaison Forum provides an opportunity for local residents and stakeholders to present their opinions and give suggestions in relation to the proposals and to consult on the range of community benefit options.

If you have any ideas about the allocation of these funds please contact Rev Richard Baxter, Independent Chairperson for the Devon Wood Wind Farm Liaison Forum at richard-baxter@msn.com

Thanks to a partnership with Carnegie College up to 6 financial support scholarships of £1,500 will be available over the period January - August 2012 to help get young people from within Kennoway, Kettle and Star community council areas into engineering and renewable energy-based careers. West Coast Energy will also offer Summer work placements or mentoring to the scholars. If you qualify and are interested then you can contact Customer Services at Carnegie College on 0844 248 0115 and quote the following project code: WCE 2011-12 or find out more about Carnegie College online at www.carnegiecollege.ac.uk
