A wind farm changes the landscape. In the immediate vicinity, there is also an impact from noise and shadow flicker. At present, there is no right to compensation for nearby residents, local communities, or municipalities when a wind farm is established. SCA advocates for legislation to be developed in this area. Until such legislation is in place, SCA has created a revenue-sharing model that will apply to new wind farms developed by SCA. The model grants nearby residents the right to a share of the wind turbines’ revenue.
Marktjärn
OX2 and SCA are exploring the possibility of establishing a wind farm at Marktjärn. The project area is located approximately 13 kilometers north of Ljungaverk in Ånge and, in its current layout, consists of 40 turbines that could generate around 1.1 TWh annually.

Development and dialogue
Wind power planning and the application for an environmental permit is a long process that can take up to ten years. SCA offers the opportunity for early dialogue, which takes place before the statutory consultation process begins in the event of a potential wind power development.
