I am living nearby and have been enjoying the countryside around here. Sunnica now wishes to place a giant eyesore next to my village, with the attendant traffic for construction and maintenance and the additional load on the national grid, which I do not agree with. The danger posed by battery buildings amounting to a small housing development in size, with the attendant risk of fires which would poison our air and be detrimental to wildlife can't be ignored. Valuable arable land will be destroyed in order to build a fully commercial site which will not contribute to local energy stability or prices in any way, but only enrich its operators. Searching for Sunnica's record on ESG, I have come up with almost nothing, this development does not seem to have value for the residents here.
