THRIVE Renewables has provided funding for two wind farms under development in Scotland.

The company, formerly known as Triodos Renewables, is helping to finance the three-turbine Gevens project near Kirkcaldy, and the two-turbine project near Johnshaven, Aberdeenshire. The projects are being developed by Renewable Energy Ventures.

Taken together the two wind farms, which Thrive is backing with mezzanine loans, will have a combined capacity of 11.5 megawatts. That is said to be enough to provide green energy for 7,760 homes.
