My concerns about the Sunnica project are: 1) The size of the project and how much good agricultural land will be lost. Since leaving the EU it is even more important that we are as self sufficient as we can be. 2) The safety records for the batteries is very worrying 3) There will be no benefit to the local population with regards to employment during or after construction 4) The plans don't include an exit plan for the disposal of the batteries, equipment etc when the project is finished 5) The land may never be suitable for agricultural use ever again 6) During construction there will be an impact on the local roads with the lorries and construction traffic
