This is an abhorrent proposal. It is unacceptable and will not be tolerated. It will absolutely ruin the natural beauty of the area. It is not a true “green energy initiative”. Solar panels have a limited life span and use more energy to recycling than what they generate. There are also a significant number of compulsory acquisitions the developers are requesting, giving property owners no legal rights. This is a mainly a green field site in terms that it is currently used as agricultural land. We need farm land for food production. The solar farm will disrupt wildlife and reduce their habitats. It will destroy village communities. This is unacceptable.
