Exhibition and Conference 24th November 2011
If you are a farmer or landowner thinking of implementing renewables of any kind then this one-day conference and exhibition at the Royal Highland Centre next month could be worth a visit. A range of expert speakers from the financial, renewables and farming sectors will discuss the right technology for your operation and how to finance it. Everything from FITs and selling to the grid to working with your local community and ‘activating the silent majority’ will be covered.
Breakout sessions and workshops cover individual technologies including wind, hydro, biomass, anaerobic digestion and solar. Maitland Mackie is the conference chairman and the opening address will be given by Richard Lochead MSP, Cabinet Secretary for Rural Affairs and the Environment.

I have two fully granted planning permissions for farm scale wind turbines. I have paid the grid connection fees. What I do not have is a bank willing to lend the deposit for the finance I can get else where. I cannot proceed for the lack of around £10k as the banks have totally stopped lending to small businesses. This is totally wrong the income is guaranteed to be close to a quarter of a million pounds over the life of the project and it is stuck by pennies, crazy.
