On Monday 9th June 2025 at the Glendaruel Village Hall, an update was given on the future lessee of the Cruach Mhor windfarm which is now known to be Belltown Power. This is a Bristol-based organisation which has an existing relationship with Forestry and Land Scotland. It operates four other sites in Scotland and several southern sites, with a mixed portfolio of wind, photovoltaic and hydro power. Their bid was the most financially competitive out of the 18 total bidders for the lease of the windfarm which renews in 2029.
