    I do not approve of such a huge project that is Mallard Park

  • Stephen Hawkins

    Solar panels are not very efficient generators (compared to say wind), and take up a lot of space. There is no apparent benefit to the local community, nor expected electricity price reduction,... Read more

    1.This plan will ruin the countryside for local residents, animals, wild life and future generations. 2. In the current world, we need to be especially self sufficient for cereal crops so it would be... Read more

  • Tamazin Bell

    I have a number of concerns about the development. First and foremost, the sheer, unprecedented scale of the installation is just way out of proportion to the nature of the environment and the small... Read more

  • Terence Padmore

    Totally inappropriate. There are better ways to create energy than utilise valuable agricultural land. Our Prime Minister is totally against this type of detail of solar panels being installed.

  • Tonya Orvis

    The smallest county of Rutland should not be home to one of the largest solar farms in the country. Virtually all of the proposed land is used for growing arable crops with good yields and should not... Read more

  • william collins

    I am concerned about the effect on my daily life due to the extra traffic on an unsuitable road structure. I am worried about the varied wildlife which lives across this area. It concerns me greatly... Read more

  • William John Williams

    Exceedingly large scale will change the entire agricultural and rural nature of this corner of Rutland into an industrial landscape. A limited well ringfenced solar area around the sub-station would... Read more

  • William Plummer

    This is a massive project which will affect the surrounding areas from increased road traffic; damage to agricultural land and environment. There has not been adequater consultiation on this matter.

  • winifred peck

    I think the problem with this project is far too big and covers too much of the Countryside, impacting on a lot of people's lives who live nearby

  • Alan Charles Shelbourn

    Mallard Pass Solar Farm is in the wrong location and it will destroy forever a vast area of high-grade agricultural land. The old RAF base at Woolfox Lodge would surely be a far better location for a... Read more

  • Andrea mcquaid

    I am very concerned about losing land for arable and livestock farming to great swathes of metal. The impact on wildlife too is a real worry, how are hawks and owls meant to find their food when the... Read more

  • Anna Haines

    I wish to register my strong opposition to the proposed Mallard Pass Solar Farm development for the following reasons: 1. The negative impact on the local natural environment and biodiversity in the... Read more

  • Barry Douglas Holt

    I object to the Mallard Pass Solar Project being approved because of the following: Loss of valuable prime farmland at a time when we need to produce more food not less. Contrary to Government policy.... Read more

  • Beverley Haydon

    Whilst I agree with solar panels this is not the place to put them. Using swathes of agricultural land when farmers are struggling to make ends meet as it is. Food shortages will be even more... Read more

  • Calvan Sydney Player

    1.Mallard Pass would be the largest Solar Plant in the UK to date. Much greater consideration is required to assess the impact this project might have. 2.Compulsory acquisition rights were not made... Read more

  • Chloe Allport

    I am strongly opposed to the Mallard Pass Solar Farm on agricultural land either side of the East Coast Main Line near Essendine on 2,105 acres of land – green land, farming land. I do not accept that... Read more

  • Chrissie Muir

    I strongly object to the proposed development on the grounds of environmental, economic and visual factors. I do not believe that the figures stated by Mallard Pass are anywhere near as beneficial as... Read more

  • Christine Spray

    Why isn't the government insisting all new builds should have solar panelling on roofs, be it commercial or residential. We need land to grow food.

  • Daniel Speed

    I support the requirement for a solar farm at Mallard pass. However the current peovision of this major infrastructure project being owned by a private company and not the UK government is... Read more

  • David Busfield

    I’m concerned about the impact on this small rural community from industrialised energy on a grand scale. Is there appropriate consideration for the infrastructure? Community? Environment and ecology?

  • David Maurice Walker

    It's in the wrong place extending over valuable food growing land and this food production must take precedence over providing power that is not available 24 hours a day. I have solar panels on my... Read more

  • David Roberts

    The size of the development is too big for the site proposed and the surrounding area. Whilst I agree with renewable energy, this will be the largest solar plant in the UK (over 8 times larger than... Read more

  • Deborah Bircham

    Further to the Mallard Pass Development and the second round of consultation, I would like to add my feedback to the amended proposals. I still have a number of concerns about this development. •... Read more

  • Derek Jones

    Loss of agricultural land, visual and noise impacts are unacceptable. Why do the cables have to run through Essendine, surely through farmland and under the railway is a better option, or would the... Read more

    I strongly oppose the large-scale industrialization of prime agricultural land, particularly as recent events have clearly demonstrated that food security is even more vital than energy supply... Read more

  • Dr. Lindsey Gove

    I believe that a scheme such as this is essential to our ability to green energy production and mitigate climate change. Whilst I recognise that it might not be ideal to have such a project in one's... Read more

    Detrimental to the immediate environment, loss of open spaces, intrusive to all neighbouring villages, excessive traffic and noise, too big not needed this size, individual properties will be... Read more

  • Fiona Mary Veronica Smith

    The size of the proposed scheme concerns me as the land is mainly agricultural and the loss of that would affect the local and wider community. The long term effects of such a huge project are not... Read more

  • Jacqueline Thorburn

    This will impact the local countryside on a major basis with loss of farming land and footpaths. Visually it will be a blot on the beautiful landscape we have. Solar should be on roof tops and... Read more

  • John Millard

    I appreciate that solar energy may need to form a part of the non-fossil energy supply in the UK in the future. However this proposed scheme creates a number of its own problems and missed... Read more
