THE DEVELOPER
Wind Estate is an independent renewable energy company, founded in the early 1990s, specialising in the development and operation of wind energy projects. Having developed strong working relationships within the renewable industry in Scotland, Wind Estate have an ambitious long term business plan and are committed to working with landowners, stakeholders and statutory consultees to bring about successful developments.
​
Wind Estate entered the UK market at a time when many existing wind farm developers were withdrawing due to political and policy uncertainties for renewable energy projects. Since then, we have worked effectively and promptly to secure a strong portfolio of onshore wind farm opportunities across Scotland, at varying stages of the development process. Having forged strong working relationships within the renewable industry in Scotland, Wind Estate have an ambitious long term business plan and are committed to working with landowners, stakeholders and statutory consultees to bring about successful developments, with a key focus on building long lasting relationships and maximising the optimum capacity of each potential site. This allows for the benefits of our projects to be spread to all involved parties, from contractors to communities throughout the project lifetime.
