The five-turbine 21.5MW Cairnmore Hill Wind Farm was consented in July 2026 following a successful appeal to the Scottish government after Highland Council refused the application in January 2025 under delegated powers.

Euan Hogg, RES Development Project Manager, explained: 
“The decision reflects the quality of the project design and the careful work undertaken to address local considerations while maximising the potential for renewable energy. Once constructed, Cairnmore Hill will deliver meaningful local and national benefits while supporting energy security.”

Cairnmore Hill Wind Farm was acquired by TagEnergy in November 2025 as part of their first UK investment in wind farms. RES will support TagEnergy in the delivery of Cairnmore Hill Wind Farm through the provision of development services.
