Perth and North Perthshire MP Pete Wishart has backed insurance giant Aviva’s latest bid to build a 77-metre high turbine to power its Pitheavlis headquarters.
The SNP MP wrote to Perth and Kinross Council last month in support of the company’s second planning application for the scheme, it has emerged.
The insurer first applied to erect a turbine at its Perth base in 2018 but Scottish ministers ended up overruling local councillors who approved the scheme on appeal in 2020.
