Garn Fach wind farm gets green light: LUC plays key role in project’s success
We are pleased to share that the Garn Fach wind farm has been approved by Welsh Ministers.
The project will generate up to 85MW of renewable energy, contributing to a sustainable future for Wales.
Located south of Newtown in Mid Wales, this wind farm will power around 69,000 homes once operational.
LUC provided essential landscape and visual consultancy for the project. We contributed to the design, aiming to minimise landscape and visual effects while ensuring efficient energy generation. Our team conducted a thorough Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment (LVIA), produced high-quality visualisations, and attended the examination to offer expertise on landscape and visual matters.
Collaborating with Dulas and EDF Renewables UK, we worked together to shape a scheme that balances renewable energy generation with careful consideration of its landscape setting. The project also includes an energy storage facility, enhancing its contribution to grid flexibility.
LUC is proud to support EDF Renewables UK in achieving this milestone. This project showcases our commitment to integrating renewable energy sensitively into the landscape while also enhancing local biodiversity.
