Progress is being made by Catrine Community Trust (CCT) as it works to get the village’s troubled community hydro scheme back up and running at a profit.
The group has applied to Whitelee Renewable Energy Fund for a £30,000 grant to buy the scheme’s turbine house at Laigh Road, plus £5,000 to hire a consultant to develop a business plan.
The trust has also submitted a planning application to convert the local fish hatchery into an operations base for the hydro scheme.
