I object to the proposal for Sunnica on the following grounds : - the devastation of arable farm land and destruction of natural habitats for wildlife - the possible decrease in house prices which means I personally could lose thousands of pounds - the disruption during the construction phase with 1000 staff and 200 heavy vehicles driving through rural villages on unsuitable roads - the questions over the safety of the technology and battery lifespan and the possible impact to the health of residents I don’t believe using countryside that is needed for food production of a growing population should be used for such a huge solar site. There is unused space on the roof tops of commercial and industrial buildings, round abouts, and the roofs of all the new housing estates that are being built.
