Communities Opposed to New Coal at Hunterston (CONCH)

CONCH is a community-led campaign against the proposed building of a £2bn coal-fired power station at Hunterston in North Ayrshire.

We are campaigning to prevent:

  • the devastation of the local environment including important bird habitats and a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI)

  • adverse impact on public health from waste products which will include at least 400,000 tonnes of fly ash, 45,000 tonnes of bottom ash and 220,000 tonnes of gypsum per year

  • unnecessary and damaging increase in Scotland’s CO2 emissions which will contribute towards climate change

We are urgently seeking to raise money to fund a legal challenge against the Scottish Government's inclusion of Hunterston in the National Planning Framework.

Please contact us for more details.
