About this listen
In this episode we dive into a subject that’s both powerful and often controversial in the world of onshore wind: compulsory purchase powers.
Host Pete Gibbard is joined by Ardent colleagues Amy Clark Kennedy (Director of Renewables) and Martin Williams (Director of Renewables, England & Wales), along with guest Alasdair Sutherland, Partner at Burness Paull, to explore:
- What compulsory purchase really means in practice.
- Why it’s so rarely used in Scotland – and whether that might change.
- Will it’s use in onshore wind DCOs in England see a change in approach in Scotland.
- The balance between landowner relationships and securing delivery certainty.
