Another block of very good arable land being covered in solar panels, again producing only about 11% at best of what they quote the output to be creating a massive problem for third wold manufacturing plants moving the mass co2 production and leaving a devastating mess somewhere else. The project created so large that it bypasses all local planning regulations. Destroying valuable cropping land and not looking towards using brown area land. There are 2 unsused power stations, High Marnham site and Cottom which could quite easily be repurposed for solar farms or other tpes of energy productions. Removal of various animal spieces and flora form the land this proven that they will never return and the land will be useless after the panels have gone. No provisions for additional drainage, No comments on electrmagnetic interference, Hazards of fire, or toxicity of products used
