I do not wish to see great high fences stopping wildlife (eg hares & Leverets deer foxes) stopped from roaming the countryside.I think the expanse of solar panels may confuse the many waterbirds into landing on them,eg grey lagged geese, swans, ducks,it is a joy to see these flying over, also the many birds of prey buzzards, kestrels, barn owls, tawney owls, and occasionally red kites feed on the many varied small mammals in the region they won't exist as the habitat will no longer be fields and hedgerows but will have become sterile and industrialised.
