Disrespectful consultation, lacking in two way conversation. This has been promoted Green and my research tells me it is far from it. BESS fire would be catastrophic for residents and fire service alike. Recent events have proved we need ALL our farmland and more to sustain our lives, we cannot eat electricity. Mining of lithium and cadmium historically carried out by children. Leaching chemicals, lead and cadmium into the aquifers would make water undrinkable, for many years. Road disruption for over two years. Heavy good vehicles on narrow potholed strewn roads. This project has no regards for the protected wildlife we have in this area. e.g. Stone curlews, bats and crested newts. Unable to find any plans for decommissioning. Often the raw materials are mined by children. What guarantees do we have from sunnica that they do not use child Labour.
