Computer generated images of how the proposed wind farm between Bozeat and Lavendon could look will go on display at a public exhibition for residents later this week.
npower renewables, the UK's most experienced wind energy developer, say it's the perfect opportunity for those living in the vicinity of the project to gain a better understanding of the need for renewable energy, wind farms and the details of the proposal.
The two day exhibition will be held between at Lavendon Village Hall on Saturday 19th November (10am- 3pm) and at St Mary's Church Hall in Bozeat on Sunday 20th November (10am-4pm).
East of England development manager Vicky Portwain said: "We aim to keep those living near to the site as informed as possible about the proposal from this early stage".
She continued, "At the exhibition we will have computer generated images of how the current wind farm design could look against the existing landscape - something we have found people are particularly interested in. npower renewables staff will also be there to talk through the displays and answer any questions about this project or wind power in general."
