Arise AB: Positive Consultation with Scottish Authorities

Regulatory News:

Arise AB (STO:ARISE)

As previously announced, several agreements have been signed which give Arise the right to plan, apply for permission and construct wind farms along the Scottish coast.

Following consultation with the Highland Council, Arise's assessment is that the project has the potential to be granted permission. Thus the work on the application can begin. The application will be for a large wind farm of 20 to 30 wind turbines along the northern coast of Scotland. The project sites have excellent wind conditions and good opportunities for grid connections.

It is estimated that the permit application will be ready for submission next year, followed by the usual processing by authorities.
