Wedoany.com Report-Nov 7,  Changes to the Welsh Government’s planning policy have resulted in permission being granted for a hugely controversial wind farm that was opposed by some of its own civil servants.

Rebecca Evans, the Cabinet Secretary for Economy, Energy and Planning, agreed with a planning inspector that Bute Energy should be allowed to build Twyn Hywel Energy Park at Senghenydd, near the border between Caerphilly and Rhondda Cynon Taf county boroughs.

The wind farm will consist of 14 turbines, generating 92.4MW of energy – enough to power the equivalent of 81,000 homes every year. It’s the first of 16 onshore wind projects across Wales proposed by the company.
