Renewable energy firm ENERCON welcomed to Wick Business Park
Highlands and Islands Enterprise (HIE) developed the units in response to local demand.
Charlotte Wright, HIE Chief Executive, said: “We very much welcome today’s announcement of £100m investment in the Northern and Western Isles over the next ten years under the Islands Growth Deal.
“This will support projects that have the potential to benefit communities across the dispersed population and geography of the islands. It will also promote innovation and employment and help deliver sustainable and inclusive economic recovery in some of our most rural areas.
“We look forward to working closely with our partners in the Islands Growth Deal to deliver these important benefits over the next ten years.”
