Developers drop Teviot wind farm bid near Hawick ahead of inquiry

Dr Christopher Ford, who has been supporting local opposition groups, said: “For the past four years the people who live in this area have gone through a lot of pain with this major development hanging over them – this is a great relief.”

He believes the decision will be a warning for other renewable energy companies looking to develop in the south-west of the Borders.

He added: “We always knew that the prospect of this application succeeding was limited because of the issues surrounding Eskdalemuir – as well as the challenges of grid connection in this remote part of Scotland.

“A sensible developer would look at what’s happened here and realise if Teviot wind farm can’t go ahead, what chance does theirs have?”.
