About the wind farm
Clashindarroch is an 18 turbine wind farm project in Aberdeenshire. We work closely with local communities to make sure we are supporting the area and developing projects that bring lasting, sustainable benefits to current residents and future generations.
Supporting the Community
Since the wind farm began operating, over £2 million has been made available to support local groups — and funding is still open for new projects.
Any group or organisation in Huntly, Strathbogie, Cabrath and Tap O'Noth can apply to Clashindarroch Wind Farm Fund, which is run by Foundation Scotland on behalf of Vattenfall.

Huntly Sports Trust
“What was previously seen as a poor facility and underutilised has been transformed into a gem within the community - one that is well used 7 days a week and is the envy of many other towns across Aberdeenshire”
Rural Regeneration
The Cabrach Trust has received over £250,000 for from Clashindarroch Wind to seven projects as part of their ambitious plans for the community.
The Bikery
The Bikery is a social enterprise in the heart of Huntly which has been fully renovated with support from the fund.
Biodiversity
At Clashindarroch we are restoring moorland and peatland habitats, transforming areas previously under commercial conifer plantations back into thriving moorland ecosystems.
