Building community value: Wind farm funding lights up Strathaven Rugby Club

2025

We caught up with Strathaven Club president Colin Dalgarno who explains how a £7,000 grant from the Kype Muir Community Panel (KMCP) helped the club make use of a space that was previously unusable during dark nights.

The grant was used to replace floodlights that were no longer working giving the club a safe place to train whilst freeing up funding to be used where it matters most: providing opportunities for children in the local community.

At OnPath Energy, we believe local residents should benefit from our projects. Community funding is managed by locals, to channel income from our projects back into the local community projects like Strathaven Rugby Club – this is what we call OnPath Together.
