Client: ScottishPower
Ken Thurtell, one of our energy experts, is advising ScottishPower on a range of its renewable energy, conventional energy and other operational sites across the UK.
ScottishPower is an integrated energy provider - generating, transmitting and distributing energy from a variety of sources. With heightened political impetus in lower carbon emissions (the Government has identified a target of 20% of electricity from renewable sources by 2020), ScottishPower is currently the UK’s leading supplier of green energy products, primarily generated from wind farms and hydro schemes.
As one of only a few advisers to specialise in the energy properties, our energy team provides ScottishPower with a range of valuation, agency and property taxation advice on sites including:
- Black Law near Forth, the UK’s largest windfarm, comprising 52 turbines
- Whitelee, Eaglesham Moor, south of Glasgow, Europe’s largest windfarm currently under construction, comprising 140 turbines
- a pump storage hydro scheme within the mountain of Ben Cruachan
- Galloway Hydros Scheme, a power station harnessing power from Tongland Dam and Reservoir
- Damhead Creek, Isle of Grain, gas fired power station
- 85 Buckingham Gate, London, the company’s London headquarters
Such unique properties require specialist expertise. We have advised within the sector since the 1930’s, today advising BP, British Energy, Eon, npower, PowerGen, Scottish & Southern Energy, the Scottish Renewables Forum, United Utilities and Yorkshire Electricity, on the expansion, contraction, redevelopment and cost control opportunities within their portfolios.
