Hide AdINVESTMENT manager Connection Capital has raised more than £5.5 million for five wind farm projects being developed by Dunfermline-based Burcote.
The cash – which was raised from Connection’s high-net worth private clients – will allow Burcote to secure options over the sites and place them in the planning process. The sites could generate 600MW, enough to power 400,000 homes.
