Clyde South Lanarkshire
Through our Clyde South Lanarkshire wind farm we make around £1.2m per year available for community and charitable projects. Over its lifetime we expect to invest £38million in local projects.
South Lanarkshire Council administer this fund on our behalf. They allocate 70% towards a local Community Fund for community projects within 15km of the wind farm, and 30% towards a Regional Development Fund for employability and training projects across South Lanarkshire.

The community fund is for projects within the Clyde wind farm area, up to around 15km from the wind farm near Abington.
Projects in the following community council areas can apply:
- Biggar
- Crawford & Elvanfoot
- Duneaton

- Quothquan & Thankerton
- Symington
- Rigside
- Douglas
- Carmichael
You can find out who is eligible to apply here.
