A wind farm which will generate enough electricity to power around 14,000 homes has officially been opened in Scotland.

The £26 million Twinshiels wind farm has 10 turbines and adjoins Eneco’s Tullo wind facility – a seven-turbine development.

The two wind farms have the capacity to power up to 24,000 homes in total.

Pieter Tavenier, Director at Eneco Wind said: “Eneco shares the Scottish Government’s aspiration for power generation from renewable sources and we have taken some big steps to ensure that this aspiration becomes a reality for Eneco’s future energy supply.”
