Big Field Onshore Wind Farm Planning Application
Good Energy, the AIM listed renewable energy supply and generation company, notes the announcement that it has not been successful in its appeal for planning for the Big Field onshore wind farm in Cornwall, that was submitted for planning in 2014.
Since that time Good Energy's strategy has moved away from development to sourcing our growing renewable power needs from partners. We will therefore take some time to consider our options.
