Sunnica will be using good arable which is needed for food production. Dangerous to have a huge battery storage facility so close to housing and schools. The life of these battery units is only about 20 years, after which the land will be toxic. What will happen to these units at their end of life? Over 15 miles of cabling are needed to link up with the nearest substation. Some landowners will have their land taken by compulsory purchase orders. This is not an environmentally friendly project.
