Found this just then Trump not a big fan of wind farms and maybe renewables in general by the look of this he is not happy and this happened today. He could make an even playing field for renewable energy and nuclear as suggested in senate. This would be huge for nuclear as the others forms of power are years away from competing.EGEB: Trump’s firm loses to Scottish wind farm, EVs are being undercut by SUVs, more
Scottish wind farm 1, Trump 0
The Scotsman‘s Martyn McLaughlin has reported that Trump International Golf Club Scotland Limited will pay the Scottish government £225,000 (around $289,000) in legal fees after Trump lost a court battle over an offshore wind farm development near his first Scottish golf resort, in Aberdeenshire.
Trump’s company lost in the Supreme Court two years ago. And then, nearly nine months after the Court of Sessions ruled the company was liable for government costs, the terms of the legal bill have been agreed.
The 11 turbine wind power development off the Aberdeen coast began operating last July. Power from the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre, which was developed by Swedish energy group, Vattenfall, is being exported to the National Grid. Its turbines are among the most powerful in the world, with a total generating capacity of 93.2 MW.
In April 2012, Trump went to Scottish Parliament to complain that wind energy would result in “almost total destruction” of Scottish tourism and “tremendous damage” to the landscape.
He also sent 16 letters to the former first minister of Scotland Alex Salmond between September 2011 and June 2013. They were obtained by a Freedom of Information request by the Huffington Post. Salmond sent one reply. Trump referred to wind farms in his letters as “monsters” and said that “wind power doesn’t work.”
The tone of the letters apparently swung from coaxing to haranguing, according to the Guardian. (My opinion: The Guardian posted one original letter from Trump, which can be read if you click the link. It is highly irrational and threatening, and shows a complete lack of understanding of wind power. It also uses way too many exclamation points, but hey, that’s just me.)
