Daventry District Council announced on Wednesday the 11th March that Bolsterstone had withdrawn its planning application for an industrial scale wind farm between Hanging Houghton and Brixworth.

Unfortunately it is likely that Bolsterstone may have withdrawn its application in order to re-submit a smaller application, which no doubt will waste more public and local money. It is not getting any easier for Bolsterstone as Torridge District Council recently said when they rejected a wind farm application “This decision sends out a clear signal to other would-be speculators like Bolsterstone, the property and investments management company behind this proposal. It was clear right from the start that this site had too many constraints.”

A Family living near a part-constructed wind farm is experiencing the same problems that plagued the Davises at Deeping St Nicholas.

The wind farm industry has been forced to admit that the environmental benefit of wind power in reducing carbon emissions is only half as big as it had previously claimed.
The British Wind Energy Association (BWEA) has agreed to scale down its calculation for the amount of harmful carbon dioxide emission that can be eliminated by using wind turbines to generate electricity instead of burning fossil fuels such as coal or gas.
