The Meikle Carewe Wind Farm Community Fund opens for applications on 1 July 2023.
Applications to the fund can be made from not-for-profit groups and organisations based
in the following Community Council areas:

  • Crathes, Drumoak and Durris
  • Newtonhill, Muchalls & Cammachmore
  • North Kincardine Rural
  • Portlethen and District

    The energy company RES has established a community fund which will see more than
    £25,000 available to support local community projects every year during the lifetime of
    the Meikle Carewe Wind Farm.

    The fund is administered by Kincardineshire Development Partnership (KDP) and managed by a Decision-Making Panel made up of representatives from the local Community Councils. The fund total for 2023 is £37,676.93.

    The fund is open for applications from 1 July 2023 to 30 September 2023. The DecisionMaking Panel, along with a non-voting representative from Kincardineshire Development Partnership (KDP), will then meet to consider applications.

    Application forms and guidelines will be available from:
