This project should not be given permission to be built, if so, we are destroying arable farm land for the sake of our Government(s) past and present included inability to solve our current power crisis and Solar Panels is not the answer. Sadly we all know what the answer will be. Seemingly we now have government(s) that are being steered by The Green Revolution, and this plan will not produce what we are being told, furthermore, some of the ideology in this plan is still being worked on by that I mean battery storage. It is criminal in this day and age and in the current circumstances of what is happenind in the world we give this type of project any thought at all, this is just an expensive quick fix that will last for about 20 or so years and cost the UK a lot of money, furthermore the project planned is not even being uilt by a UK firm and furtherore the Solar Panels being used are to be made in China. On top of those 2 obstacles we also have the upheval while this work is being carried out and this will have a big impact on all people living any where near these sites where these Solar Panels are supposed to be installed there will be traffic problems in all town in and arount Bourne, Market Deeping and Stamford. This type of project and investment in Solar Panels would be best placed on All New Build Factories and Warehouses regardless of size thus releiving our farming community of giving up land for a fast buck and reducing our food supplies, also added to this argument is the need for Crops to be grown that are then turned into fuel for our motor vehicles this being a Maize type of crop. Th UK cannot sustain this type of Investment on ay agricultural land in order to assist its ailing Power Generation as this has been through lack of Investment in the first place by the Power Generators themselves. There will be great inconvenience to local people with green spaces now being handed over to this type of Investment which is not goiong to answer any of the question with regard to power generation or even assist our needs for power, as we are being told by this Government as of 2030 ICE cars will be banned so this gives rise to the fact that this project is dead in the water for a start and the UK Government and its department)s) should be looking at investing in Nuclear or Coal for Power Generation for years to come. This sort of backward investment is Not Needed it would be better for UK firms to look at this type of investment instead of passing all of the UK's problems on to foreign hands and investment.
