South and West of Berwick-upon-Tweed Wind Capacity Study

Abstract

This report presents the results of an independent study into wind farm development in the south and west of Berwick-upon-Tweed area of Northumberland. It states that the area can potentially accommodate up to 30 to 40MW of wind energy development, which equates to approximately 10 to 15 turbines.

The study is the fourth to use the award-winning methodology that was developed by ARUP with White Consultants on behalf of the North East Assembly to assess the impact of wind farms on the landscape.

The study identifies a range of scenarios based on differing levels of potential, ranging from 30MW to 70MW.
