  1. There’s something about Burcote’s website that’s slightly strange – as a ‘new kid on the block’ that has yet to bring a project to formal planning application stage, it seems strange that there’s no hard information on the background and experience of any of the ‘team members’, and the fact that the ‘investor team member’ operates under a pseudonym – ‘Hotbed’ – seems rather odd. However, one of the partners in Wind Towers Ltd is Scottish & Southern Energy, and presumably they’ve done their homework before entering into an agreement with another company, however loose. Warning: if you read the very small print at the foot of Burcote’s front page, and click on ‘legal information and privacy policy’ you’ll find that you’ve apparently entered into a legal agreement, and can be tracked. Good luck.

  2. Strangely, this company Burcote Wind, have NO current turbines installed. The boss Graham Brown actually has his headquarters in Northampton, where he lives. He seems to be a consultant gathering investors for this wind co.
    Is this a get rich scheme??? Or are they really concerned about the environment!!

  3. Morag, I think the term ‘venture capitalist’ is the name you are looking for.
    If you owned a windy hill and someone knocked on your door and said for no outlay I can make you thousands a year for the windy hill and you were a typical estate owner in Scotland you would jump with joy. If you see the thousands of miles carved across the highlands by the estate owners and the forestry commission you would know that the planning rules in Scotland are as corrupt as you can get.
    Put in planning for a quarry at Kentallen and everyone jumped about objecting but at the same time the real objective. GlenSanda, went sailing through. Same at Kishorn, Plockton was the bluff all those years ago. People need to realise that huge planning applications are a bluff, these people will use any underhanded way to realise their end game. MONEY MONEY MONEY
