One of Scotland largest windfarms has been granted an extra 25 years of life in a move that is expected to help ring in funds for rural communities on the fringes of the Pentland Hills.
The Harburnhead windfarm has already contributed almost £200,000 to local communities since it opened in 2016.
And West Lothian Council Development Management Committee raised no objections after being consulted by the Scottish Government under the Electricity Act to extend the operational life of Harburnhead windfarm to 50 years - 2066.
