Following the public exhibitions and online consultations Statkraft undertook in March and April of 2025, Kilmun Community Coucil received the following communication provided here for information to the community:

 

“Dear Members of Kilmun Community Council,

I am writing with an update on the Giant’s Burn Wind Farm proposal following our second round of public exhibitions held in April 2025. 

As you may recall, we held in-person public exhibitions on the 1-3 April, at five different locations, Dunoon, Kilmun, Sandbank, Innellan, and Cove. We also held an online consultation from 31 March – 21 April, for anyone unable to attend the physical events or who preferred to go online. We wish to thank everyone who took the time to come and meet us and/or returned the feedback form to let us know their views on the project.  

Since the exhibitions, we have been compiling responses to everyone who returned a reply card and indicated that they wished to be updated on the project.  These emails will be arriving with them shortly.  For anyone who responded to the reply cards but did not 'tick' that they would like a response, we have been unable to write directly in- line with GDPR legislation, however, we have a FAQ section on the project website with main themes and questions asked on the project. 

Please find attached our Consultation Report, which provides a summary of the feedback we received at the exhibitions. We will upload the Report to our project website and are sharing it with local and neighbouring community councils and elected representatives.

Finally, we wish to thank the community for engaging with us to date and should you have any queries in the meantime, please do not hesitate to get in touch. 

Kind regards,

Iain Robertson - Head of Development Services
