Calderdale Wind Farm Reduces Turbines to 34, Campaigners Continue Opposition
ENERGY STORAGEPOWER GRIDS & TRANSMISSION
Calderdale Wind Farm Ltd has revised its plans for the wind farm at Walshaw Moor, now proposing 34 turbines instead of 41 and removing the battery energy storage system. These adjustments result from feedback during a consultation and ongoing assessments.
However, opposition persists, led by campaigners who argue the project poses significant environmental risks, including damage to protected peatlands and wildlife habitats. The project aims to export approximately 240 MW of renewable energy to the Bradford West substation. A statutory consultation is scheduled for spring.
