> Its report concluded: “The imperative to tackle climate change, achieve net zero targets and contribute to energy security… clearly and decisively outweigh those harms.”

Nice for sanity to prevail for once

I used to be extremely pro solar farms, but given that electricity prices don’t go down, and won’t go down, (octopus ceo) explained it better but essentially even if they sell it at £0, you will still pay the same if not more for electricity due to the terrible governing, so honestly unless you own the land and its your own solar energy to use, seems like a complete waste of time

Unnecessary white elephant projects.
Govt should incentivise rooftop solar panels for each households in the countryside….

I read this as human solar farm and thought we’d gone full matrix.

How many of the 378 objections came from people living within say 5 miles of the site? Prior applications have had problems with people hundreds of miles away objecting. As they just disagree with solar full stop.

This is a regular reminder to those concerned about farming that golf courses outnumber solar farms 10:1 in the uk
