There have been several announcements about big new solar power projects this past week. Rather than try to tackle them one at a time (that wasn’t going to happen), I’m running through them below in a combo story.
The largest solar power plant in the UK has been approved for Kent. It will use 880,000 solar panels spread across 364 hectares of farmland.
A proposed solar power plant in Kent in eastern UK would be 5 times larger than any solar installation in the country. Its size has created quite a lot of environmental concerns for the developers to manage.
Hive Energy, one of the UK’s leading solar developers, has announced that it will proceed with plans to develop a 40-megawatt subsidy-free solar park next to its global headquarters.
