I am concerned this is not a Green scheme because over one thousand solar panels 2.5 m high will be imported along with batteries from China, will it create more carbon in its life time than it saves? I am concerned that if these battery storage compounds catch fire the poisonous gases will affect the homes close by. I am too understand that these type of battery energy storage compound fires can not be extinguished with water in the normal way and would be a danger to extremely close by homes farms and business's. I am concerned that this Spanish company will profit greatly when they resell their stored energy to our grid for us to buy back at inflated rates. I am concerned that the farming land surrounding our villages will be become grey and industrial overnight with this flawed gargantuan plan. I think this will affect the mental health of the people living in and around the villages of this scheme as we will have a changed outlook from nothing we have ever known.
