In November 2022 RES submitted a Section 36 application to Scottish Minsters for consent under the Electricity Act 1989 for the 21-wind turbine Bloch Wind Farm, near Langholm, Dumfries and Galloway.

In October 2025, RES submitted Additional Information to the Scottish Ministers, which includes a reduction in the size of the proposal from 21 wind turbines to 18 wind turbines. Also included in the revised design is the reduction in tip height of three turbines from 230m to 180m and the removal of approximately 1,700m of access track.
