Buccleuch is to market a consented 210MW pumped storage hydro plus adjacent wind farm project in Scotland.
The project is sited on a former opencast coal mining site at Glenmuckloch, on the Queensberry Estate in Dumfriesshire.
Buccleuch is to market the scheme with the assistance of Edinburgh-based investment bank Noble & Co.
Buccleuch energy director Alan Wilson said: “With much of the background work now completed for the site, and Buccleuch as sole owners of the projects, we have reached a pivotal moment and are now looking for a purchaser to take the project through to commercial operation.
“The scheme has the potential to be economically and environmentally transformational, both regionally and nationally.
