SSE seeks nod from the Scottish government for the 80 MW wind repowering project located on land north of Kilchenzie, Kintyre Peninsula, Argyll and Bute, Scotland.

In August 2018, SSE submitted a Section 36 Application to Scottish Ministers seeking consent to replace the existing 22 operational turbines for 16 modern, more efficient machines.  If consented, the proposals could deliver over four times the existing installed generating capacity of the wind farm.
