They called one Renewable Revolution and the other Electric Emily.

Auchengray-based Muirhall Energy welcomed the children from Auchengray Primary, the P3s and P4s from Carnwath Primary and MSP Aileen Campbell, to open the two turbine Muirhall Windfarm Extension.

Muirhall Energy, which challenged the children to write essays and come up with names in the competition, invited the winners to cut the ribbons and their classmates to come along to see the turbines up close.
