As a local resident, Sunnica has failed to consult adequately with the communities impacted by their proposal. I have therefore been unable to raise my concerns which in summary are: 1, negative impact on local wild life including River Lark wildlife 2. Removal of green spaces currently used for health walks and mental health support from nature (environment and wildlife, birds etc) 3. Inefficiency of planned development given its long/thin/circuitous route and its failure to be carbon neutral 4. The loss of vital agricultural growing land at a time when we need to increase not decrease our crop production in the Fens/East Anglia 5. The health and safety risks for local residents from such large, unproven battery storage facilities and the dedicated, specialist fire service personnel to be readily available if they catch fire
