I write to oppose the plans for these solar farms of massive proportions around my home and in the surrounding area. This has been heartbreaking news my family and it frustrates me that it now seems an impossible and totally one sided battle. These extremely well financed solar companies are using the green agenda and much misinformation to pressure the UK down this ruinous road of industrial solar on farmland. In this one area of West Lindsey we will have lost about 15% of our rich farming heritage to solar farms, if the applications are sucessful. This would certainly be the largest single loss of farmland in planning history. How are we able to make our voices heard and stand up to one of these wealthy companies, let alone four together? They have employed specialists and combined legal teams to prop up their cases with money that we can never compete with! The system is wrong and we look to the Planning Inspectorate to see this and make it right. A solar complex such as this does not have the right to override all other planning matters. This is looking like a solar takeover, a gold rush? Please help?
