Plans for 250m-high wind turbines rejected
November 27, 2025
|Western Mail
PLANS to develop a wind-farm site with huge turbines near a Neath Port Talbot village have been rejected by Welsh Government officials.
How Y Bryn Windfarm could have looked
(Y Bryn Windfarm)
The proposals for Y Bryn wind farm on the mountains overlooking the peaceful community of Bryn, around five miles from the centre of Port Talbot, could have seen the construction of as many as 18 turbines if given the go-ahead.
‘These would have been some of the tallest onshore turbines in the UK, measuring up to 250m to tip - a height more than double that of the current tallest residential building in Wales, which is The Tower at Meridian Quay in Swansea.
‘The plans led to a massive public backlash from villagers, as well as from residents of the surrounding areas of Port Talbot and Maesteg, who felt the turbines could have a major impact on the local landscape, wildlife and quality of people's lives.
