Project Benefits

Economic Benefits: local workers, short supply chains

On our developments we aim to use local workers as much as possible. We also support young people who want to develop technical skills in the renewable energy sector. The proposed development aims to create direct and indirect economic benefits including:

  • Local jobs during construction.

  • A range of contracts available for tender; local companies will be encouraged to apply for a variety of services such as electrical and building contracts, local plant hire, fencing, catering and accommodation among others.

  • The potential for local jobs, once the wind farm is operational.

If you are a local company and wish to register your interest, please email earlsburn@pagodapr.com

 

Community Benefits

We invite the local community to help us shape a community benefit package that best meets local needs and wishes.  This could include direct funding to local groups/organisations; apprenticeships; local regeneration; support for local clubs and/or a community share in the wind farm.

  • If the windfarm is approved, the developers will offer a community benefit scheme built around suggestions from the local community.

  • We will meet as many local people and community representatives as possible during the consultation process to listen to your thoughts and ideas on how this fund could be spent.
