Highland Council is set to consider the future location and development of green energy projects.
Highland Council is set to consider the future location and development of green energy projects.
Once the draft renewable strategy has been agreed it will become the planning blueprint for deciding where renewable energy projects go in the region.
More than 500 written representations have been received by the council and public hearings have been held across the Highlands.
The strategy will determine which wind farms get the go ahead in the future.
The plan being considered also covers wave energy projects, hydro electric and biomass plants.
Councillors have to balance the environmental and economic benefits these projects may bring against the impact on the environment and landscape of the Highlands.
The draft plan details 11 areas in the Highlands where there will be a presumption in favour of wind farm projects.
