Bold claim: the Golden Eagle project is reigniting opposition to the Walkerburn wind farm. The company states its plans are well-suited to the local area, and it emphasizes a substantial community benefit fund of £8 million alongside anticipated opportunities for residents. They also reiterate a serious commitment to ornithological assessments when selecting new project locations.
They note that they have carefully considered the concerns raised by RUN about the Scawd Law proposal.

Nonetheless, the firm emphasizes its openness to ongoing, constructive dialogue with stakeholders.
