Scottish Power plans to repower the Whitelee windfarm in East Renfrewshire, aiming to increase the site’s generating capacity by up to double. Reporting across outlets says the project involves replacing or upgrading existing turbines with taller ones as part of a major rebuilding effort. Sky News describes the programme as a £1.5 billion project, while other coverage focuses on the repowering plans at the UK’s largest onshore windfarm and the use of higher-capacity equipment. The proposals would maintain Whitelee’s role as a large onshore wind installation while expanding output using updated turbine technology. Coverage does not indicate changes to the windfarm’s location beyond the East Renfrewshire site, but it frames the work as a refurbishment and expansion rather than a new facility. The reporting is consistent that Scottish Power is pursuing the capacity increase through turbine upgrades and that the overall redevelopment is intended to significantly raise electricity generation.
