Solar Farms use photovoltaic (PV) panels, harness the sun’s energy and convert it into electricity that is sent to the electrical grid for distribution and consumption.

A solar farm of this size will generate a significant amount of electricity from renewable sources, therefore offsetting the need for power generation from the combustion of fossil fuels including coal and oil. Consequently, during its operational lifespan the proposed development has the potential to displace electricity generated from fossil fuels and consequently represents carbon savings.

Solar farms assist with the transition to a low carbon energy grid with improvements to the local environment and looks to address the Climate Emergency and the UK’s Net Zero by 2050 commitments.
