This project is out of proportion for the area and would swallow up a huge area of valuable prime agricultural land, damaging biodiversity and habitats for wildlife. The scale of the solar panels and intfrastructure required would turn the area in to a distopian eysore affecting peoples quality of life and mental welfare, yet bringing absolutely no benefit since an electricity generated would be sold at gas related prices. Only the developers would benefit, making huge profits out of peoples misery. In our local climate, Solar power is far less efficient than Windpower, which Lincolnshire is much more suited to, and to which I have no objections to. The roads in the area are not suited to large construction vehicles either.
