Map of wind farms and planned pylon routes in Wales map top
This map shows the routes of all new pylon lines proposed by Bute/Green GEN Cymru.
Existing and planned wind farms are shown, those proposed by Bute Energy as well as other companies.

About this map:
Representation is best effort and based on available information. Pylon route lines may change as planning progresses. Area boundaries for wind farms are simplified or approximated only and are not in any way definitive. They are also likely to change in future.
Circle wind farm markers indicate locations where not much else is known. Speculative wind farm sites are mostly known by company name only and located with reasonable probability derived from that name (optional display in the layer menu).
Planned and existing wind turbines can be shown (options in menu) if locations are known, though not always available in plans. Where possible the turbine markers are scaled to the rotor size, those recently specified are often much larger than older existing units.
Place markers give a small selection of locations that may be impacted along the routes. They can be turned off/on in the map layer menu.
A few large solar farm projects are shown, though not all. This is work in progress.
The base map can be changed between Open Street Map, Open Topographical Map or Satellite - select from the layers menu at the top-right corner.
Information presented on this map is not guaranteed as acurate, but the features are intended to give a reasonably good idea of location.
