The Greenstead Solar Farm development will generate clean, renewable energy for export into the national electricity system - powering homes and businesses across the country. The development of new renewable energy sources is a key component of the fight against climate change and will help to ensure our energy independence at a time of significant international uncertainty.
The site has good irradiance and is well positioned and we will deliver further landscaping alongside the development to offer visual screening. The project will also deliver new habitats which will create significant local biodiversity benefits.
As part of our planning application, we have undertaken detailed assessments of important issues, including visual impact, traffic & transport, heritage and glint & glare. Brockwell Energy have a track record of considerate development and have the experience to plan to ensure that the impacts of the scheme on the surrounding community are managed and mitigated, even during the construction phase.
