- Inappropriate size close to rural village homes. - No direct local benefit. - Concern this rioritising greenfield sight for convenience and economy of construction over brownfield sites. - Concern for Sunnica's lack of experience with this size of project. - Concern over battery safety and local fire brigade ability to cope with battery fire. - Has the impact on the wellbeing of the villagers been considered? - How easily will site be returned to agriculture or will it be considered a brownfield site prime for housing? - Concern for removing farmland from production increasing UK dependence on imported food and the associated increase in carbon emissions. - Concern carbon footprint of whole project life cycle will actually be carbon positive.
