Perth-based insurance giant Aviva has been granted planning permission to erect a near 77-metre high turbine near its Pitheavlis headquarters.
The company says once the new turbine is built and working in conjunction with existing renewable infrastructure at the site such as solar panels, their offices will be 100 per cent powered by renewable energy.
The approval comes two years after Aviva was denied consent to put up a similar sized turbine closer to its offices over concerns raised by Historic Environment Scotland (HES) the structure would have an adverse impact on the setting of the category A-listed buildings.
