The wind farm, located 30km east of Inverness, will consist of 29 Enercon 2.3MW turbines and Statkraft will invest £70m ($112.6m) in the project.
Statkraft has been developing the plant with partner Duke Energy since 2004 but has acquired its interest, and now owns 100% of the project company, Catamount Energy.
“We are very pleased with the decision to invest in Berry Burn Wind Farm and for Statkraft to be able to continue to contribute to the realisation of Scotland’s and the UK’s ambitious renewable energy objectives,” says Christian Rynning-Tønnesen, CEO of the Norwegian group.
