There's good news in The Scotsman this morning that a consortium are planning to build the world's biggest windfarm off the Scottish coast.
13 miles off Caithness, the numbers for the project are huge: 300 turbines, 114 square miles, 1,500 MW, 1,400 construction jobs, 130-280 permanent jobs and a cost of £4.5 billion.
Even more surprising for me is the tone of the article in The Scotsman. It's almost...approving! The paper hasn't been much of a friend to the environmentalist over the years, perhaps this signals a change in attitude. We'll have to wait and see with that one.
